Geezzz! I wonder why? It couldn't be all the bad press, could it? (sarcasm)

[CedarDave]

Glad to see the liberal media whores are performing their propaganda job so well -- get DNC talking points, parrot same.

[Saundra Duffy]

All the Republicans need to stop all the in-fighting and back-stabbing and concentrate on getting GWB re-elected - and I ain't just whistlin' dixie.

[ClearCase_guy]

Maybe I've been under a rock, but I don't think I've seen a poll like this before. "Who would you pick, George W. Bush, or someone else?" I imagine it's easy to get a fairly high "someone" number. But if you get specific, won't it be 11% for Kerry, 12% for Dean, 3% for Sharpton -- and 48% for Bush?

I recall asking friends who were graduating college what kind of job they wanted.
"Oh, I'll take anything. Anything at all."
"Well, would you scoop ice cream?"
"Hell no!"

In the abstract, people are open to "someone else" but when it comes to particulars, it's a different story.

Wait a minute, guys.

Did any of you read this?

The Zogby America poll involved 1,011 likely voters selected randomly from throughout the 48 contiguous states using listed residential telephone numbers. 

Would any one of you like to have seen the questions on the poll? How the hell does "random selection" lead to an accurate result?

Damn push poll is what this is.

This poll would be the high water mark for the rats because it allows each rat to vote for his ideal rat candidate.

THat said, I find it interesting that Bush's poll numbers for August dates are consistant. I see a possible seasonal effect here.

[Skooz]

Relax. Come November 2004 we will see a landslide of Reaganesque proportions.

Reagan's numbers were not so good at the same point in his first term. Then came November 1984.

Q: "Do you feel safer with George Bush as President, or with Democrat candidate ___________."

Next question.

GWB will get our support, will win the election, will continue the fight. I recommend we focus our additional energies on expanding the margin in the Senate.

[Ditter]

I used to be asked regularly to vote in Zogby's Online poll. I haven't been sent one in quite a while. Do you suppose I was weeded out because I *always* give President Bush the highest marks?

[prarie earth]

Zogby laying on the special sauce, that accurately predicted a Democratic landslide in 2002 (sarcasm on)

[VRWC_minion]

Random polling is required for it to be valid.

[El Che Vive]

Q: "Do you feel safer with George Bush as President, or with Democrat candidate Wesley Clark."

Not saying I'd support him personally, but I think a lot of people would vote yes to that question once the campaign season starts bubbling. Just a thought.

[j_k_l]

All this says to me is....

GAME ON!

[Skooz]

Uh. It isn't a "yes/no" question.

But maybe you're right.

[KevinDavis]

Didn't the Zogby poll said that Jeb was going to lose to McBride?

[section9]

Possibly. However, I would suspect that statistical accuracy would have been increased had Zogby done the same poll several times. Now perhaps he did.

If this is accurate, we'll be in for a rough patch until the economy improves demonstrably. However, Zogby's record in 2002 was nothing to write home about.

Is the pollster a member of the peaceful religion?

[areafiftyone]

He sure is. Heard the peaceful religion is being targed by the Dems as a major voting block. Interesting how they know what group is the most gullible!
