Unfortunately, Rasmussen is not credible based on his horrible performance four years ago. But I suppose that this type of news is better than the alternative.

Except that Rass 4 years ago had Gore up by 9 points. Funny how both Qunniapac and Mason Dixon, the two best state pollers, reflect Rass numbers.

This is the most repeated crap I hear about Rasmussen. In 2000, he did not adjust for party ID. Now he does. Thus, in 2000 he was easily susceptible to variances in his samples. This year, I'll bet he is under-reporting Republicans because he is using 2000 party ID exit polling data, which doesn't take 9/11 into account.

While I think his national numbers will be alot better this year, I have no idea how good he is at state polling. Thus, he could easily be way off in these latest estimates.

Zogby has all of a sudden indicated Bush up by 4 in Ohio. Mason-Dixon has Bush up by 8 in Fl. I think pollsters have picked up on the Bin Laden tape and it's moving Bush.
