Someone confronted me last night about this poll showing Kerry beating Bush by 3 points

Also, what is seldom mentioned is that Newsweak polled warm bodies, not registered voters or likely voters. Fred Barnes mentioned last night that Newsweak had a poll in 1984 showing Mondale beating Reagan. Same shtick here.

Overall, 52 percent of those polled by NEWSWEEK say they would not like to see Bush serve a second term, compared to 44 percent who want to see him win again in November. As a result, Kerry is enjoying a marginal advantage over Bush, a first for the poll. Forty-nine percent of registered voters chose Kerry, compared to 46 percent who re-elected Bush.
