"I missed Rasmussen, but he's not much different. What people have to realize is a pollster can say anything without having to be correct until the last poll before an election. Their reputation is based on that one last poll. "

I disagree, Rasmussen's polls never swing widely like the others. BTW, Bush is at 46% again for the second day, which translates into 48-49 with likely voters.

I like Rasmussen, but you can still add 5% to his polls and come closer in the end. He may not swing as widly, but he's still playing the game, IMHO.

Not only that. Why do they split the "Somewhat approve/Somewhat disapprove number? Seems just a different way of saying the same thing.
