"Narrow lead" in a CBS poll translates to "Bush creaming Kerry."
So whats the deal with Nader? Is he a factor...I havent really kept up with that
Don't think I'll be losing much sleep over this one.
Look, I don't care what kind of fool, or how childish, I might seem to be, I refuse to believe (a) anything from CBS and/or (b) any poll that says the Bush job approval number is 44%. No way.
"The bad news in the poll is that his approval rating is in the low 40s, more Americans feel the country is on the wrong track and more voters dislike him than like him."
Consider the source....horse manure...The (cBS) WISH this were true.....but it just isn't so....wonder what cBS will say when Bush wins Nov.2nd?
Bush job approval three points below his vote number?
Anybody here just fall off the turnip truck?
The "wrong track" question is so ridiculous. I firmly believe the country is on the wrong track in many ways but I also will vote for George Bush!
I wonder how seeBS and the Slimes ask the approval question. My guess is that it is something like this?
Do you approve of the way that warmongering president who has caused us shame in Iraq by not building a broad coalition, President George W. Bush, is doing his job as President of the United States?
Job approval is probably low because the question was phrased in a different manner. This generally explains why job approval varies between different pollsters even if other numbers match.
cBS and New York Slimes a match made in liberal hell.
Basically, it was pitched as all doom for the President.
J/A makes no sense and qualifying "44" as "low 40's" vs. "mid-40's" indicates an inherent spin.
Considering this poll is sponsered by the Jayson Blair Times and the Dan raTHer news organization, I wouldn't consider it childish.
Nice Bush is leading, but cBS has no credibility anymore.
The other 6% surveyed could be heard repeating to themselves cBS, New York Times and laughing.
What goes up, must come down, spinnin' wheels got to go round...
And if that JA number isn't an artificial bit of spin, I'll eat my favorite hat!
cBS radio news lies on top of every hour.
