Zogby still shows it tied. I was hoping for a 1 or 2 point uptick for Bush since one weekend day has rolled off. Wonder were it will be when Sunday rolls off?....
And is it possible that, as much as we don't like to hear this, so are the voters - at least at this point? Still, these are national polls. I can't see why someone on this site can't accept that Bush might again lose the popular vote and win the electoral vote.
Bush up +3.5 is terrific (considering debates, war,etc.)...now time to keep the momentum rising!

Not just his bro! This is a familial affliction!
Straits Times, Singapore - Oct 17, 2004 "... test will come on Nov 2. In Singapore last Friday, he (Zogby) flatly predicted that Mr Kerry would become the 44th President of the United States."
Now, I have my doubts as to what kind of an unbiased scientist can possibly predict an election that he himself has tied and do it over two weeks into the future.
The guy's in the tank for Kerry just like his brother. If his poll looks like it's an outlier, just ignore it. You'll sleep better.
That's not good news. However, Bush's approval rate is WAY below the 50% reelect rate. You can't beat math with hope and ignorance.
"What I think Zogby does is cook his polls until the final one comes out. Then he can claim to be accurate while still have done his best to put his man across the top. I have no respect for him as a pollster. "
Absolutely AGREE! When it gets down to 3-4 days before elections of Nov.2...watch for his polling to become more "accurate" to the rest.....let's watch and see!
Are you dilusional or what....RCP average JA 49.4.....that is hardly "Way" below 50%
It is hard to believe that America is even considering Kerry! If Kerry wins then America will take the greatest turn to the left this nation has ever made.
It is ashame that many Americans are so stupid that they think they they are voting for the Kerry of today and not the 20 year Kerry.
If Kerry would just be truthful about his 20 year record and his liberal votes there is no way he would be elected.
Sadly many American voters are in reality too dumb to vote!
May God help us on November 2nd.
Tina asked, 'So, who's going to win the election?" Zogby replied, "John Kerry."
I believe that remark was made by his brother...but still agree he is definitely Dem leaning!!!
People that believe this are living in a fantasy land. The quote you took from my post was a quote of someone else, not my thinking.
People here are too eager to discount that with which they disagree. We thought Election Night 2000 was going to be a big celebration; everyone here better prepare themselves for a nailbiter again this year.
One might say that, and then if they did it would probably be someone who didn't watch Zogby in action in the 2000 election. His final poll was far more accurate than his polls in the final month which consistently showed Gore ahead. Then his final poll was very accurate.
But thanks for your insult for a rather benien comment on my part. Seems you have an agenda.
I just said I WON'T; it's been done repeatedly. He's a one-trick pony. One trick. One time. Almost all else he's done is laughably wrong. But do go on and follow the one-trick pony. Free country and all that...
"Are you dilusional or what....RCP average JA 49.4.....that is hardly "Way" below 50%"
Not dilusional, just factual.
"Bush's job approval rating was at 44 percent, one of the lowest during his tenure, and a majority of voters said they disapproved the way he had handled the economy and the war in Iraq, and that his tax cuts had favored the wealthy."

Actually I think Bush might win the popular vote by a few hunded thousand but might lose the electoral battle, due to courts, fraud, what have you....then you would hear nary a peep about the electoral college from the Dems who previously wanted it changed or abolished!
We're talking presidential elections. His last game was 2000, and there he was spot on bro.
I agree with you. I've been here since 1998 and I've never seen so many people in denial and rolling in apparent indifference, like pigs in sh*t. LOL
K ....come to the conclusion you are either a Troll or indredibly mecicated, one poll a CBS poll had his JA at 44%.....the RCP average of all polls (which has proven to be far more reliable the a single poll) has the JA average at 49.4%....Typical Dim argument based on isolated selected data rather than looking at the whole picture
I have heard he did this very thing in '00.
