Fox News just showed their new polling data...KERRY IS UP 2%
Anybody know what the internals look like (i.e. the sample size, party affiliation percentages, etc.)?
I saw that as well. That is why i get nervous. Hopefully this poll will change by tonight or in the morning. Either way it won't matter by tomorrow!
Does it still show Kerry winning with Men? Then it crap.......
The problem is, voters like to go with the winner, and they will think Kerry has momentum. No one wants to vote for a perceived loser.
The MSM and DIM talking heads will seize upon this to trumpte "Kerry surge" over and over, and the American public could buy it because that's what they're hearing.
It's not a trend. Newsweek has Bush up by 8. Now how do you suppose that we go from 8 to minus 2. It's called bad polling. They just learned what questions they needed to ask to get the answer they wanted.
Ouch. Not what I was expecting. Bush must not have rebounded from the Friday bad poll day. I expected Bush to be ahead slightly in their tracking poll today. Well, not much we can do now except get out and vote, and take someone with you.
All the pols will show Kerry surging. Keep on trusting the liberal news media, FOX included.
Given a choice between wiping my a$$ with the polls and your used toilet paper, my first response would be to make sure you hadn't been eating jalapenos yesterday.
Thanks, that makes me feel better.
Newsweek poll is 11/1?

It's for ratings. I don't even think it is a new poll they just play with the numbers within the margin of error. :)
Not a good trend for Bush.
Anything to help their numbers on election night. It's just like the Hurricane coverage. Every station shows about 4 expected paths (one will hurt you) and then they say, "so stay tuned right here and we'll keep you informed."
Unfortunately, I trust FOX a helluva lot more than Newsweek.
How reliable is a Fox Poll anyway? There are so many polls - which ones should we be concerned with? DUers are latching on to this poll like its written in stone when underneath they cannot stomach Fox News.
Weekend Democrat bias. I hope!
And CBS poll has him up by three. So it's not a trend. You guys have got to stop blowing with every wind ! Also Rasmussen is up and so is Zogby. Chill, guys !
That's why we can't watch the polls constantly. We'll be a nervous wreck by Election Day. As if we're not now. I'll tell you where they took this poll: A poll of likely voters in Harlem, show President Bush down by 2.
Anyone that takes a statistics class will learn that statistics are all relative depending on the questions frasing and interpretation.
