Anything Zogby is involved in is skewed to the dems. No wonder it doesn't make any sense.
Most likely they oversampled Democrats, i.e., cooked the poll.
uH oh...I thought the dems were winning in a landslide.
More like a mudslide.
Now another poll showing Webb ahead...that is a real worry....
I don't believe for a minute the pedophile will win in Virginia. This is more B.S. from a Democratic shill, Zogby.
Interactive=Internet=NOT SCIENTIFIC!

I suspect that none of the polls have any meaning in light of the current Kerry debacle.
Perhaps we'll have a better read Friday/Monday.
Just remember, the Wall Street Journal 'news division', which is associated with Zogby in this poll (and NBC in other polls), is further left than all other MSM. The far left 'news division' of WSJ is often confused with the 'editorial division', which is decidedly conservative. They are two different entities.

A Measure of Media Bias
by Tim Groseclose, Department of Political Science, UCLA and Jeff Milyo, Department of Economics, University of Missouri
December 2004
"One surprise is the Wall Street Journal, which we find as the most liberal of all 20 news outlets. We should first remind readers that this estimate (as well as all other newspaper estimates) refers only to the news of the Wall Street Journal; we omitted all data that came from its editorial page. If we included data from the editorial page, surely it would appear more conservative.
Second, some anecdotal evidence agrees with our result. For instance, Reed Irvine and Cliff Kincaid (2001) note that “The Journal has had a long-standing separation between its conservative editorial pages and its liberal news pages.” Paul Sperry, in an article titled the “Myth of the Conservative Wall Street Journal,” notes that the news division of the Journal sometimes calls the editorial division “Nazis.” “Fact is,” Sperry writes, “the Journal’s news and editorial departments are as politically polarized as North and South Korea.”[24]
Third, a recent poll from the Pew Research Center indicates that a greater percentage of Democrats, 29%, say they trust the Journal than do Republicans, 23%. Importantly, the question did not say “the news division at the Wall Street Journal.” If it had, Democrats surely would have said they trusted the Journal even more, and Republicans even less.[25]
Finally, and perhaps most important, a scholarly study—by Lott and Hasset (2004)—gives evidence that is consistent with our result. As far as we are aware this is the only other study that examines the political bias of the news pages of the Wall Street Journal. Of the ten major newspapers that it examines, the study estimates the Wall Street Journal as the second-most liberal.[26] Only Newsday is more liberal, and the Journal is substantially more liberal than the New York Times, Washington Post, L.A. Times, and USA Today."
