Gallup has been polling for over 60 years. This is THE poll used by pundits and polisci historians for mapping out electoral trends.

"Could be, but that "Reporting for Duty" was pretty effin stupid..

The Bunny suit wasn't a real stroke of brilliance either. :-) I can't even imagine what the next few months hold. I may have to go dig up the old threads from the last conventions. LOL

In the three-way race, Kerry lost a point among likely voters after the convention, and he neither gained nor lost among registered voters. Bush gained four points both among likely voters and among registered voters. To the extent that there is any bounce in this three-candidate ballot, it is for Bush rather than Kerry.

They will probably determine Kerry's loss was due to the balloon failure.

We've seen this previously.

When the public is bombarded daily by JF'nK's bombast and visage, his ratings go down.

When he is safely tucked away on vacation and the other 'Rats are attacking W, JF'nK's ratings go up.

He should change is name to Any Buddybutt Bush.

How desperate is that?

This is like counting EMPTY/UNMARKED butterfly ballots as a vote for Gore.This is worse than trying to count hanging chads.

Better not tell the folks at DU about this one. They're still trying to come to grips with the CNN poll. Here's a sampling.

What is with alot of you. You start rambling off with negative because a poll done by hack news network like CNN says Kerry had NO bounce? This is the same outfit that said Kerry fell 14 points behind shrub in NC after selecting Edwards, while mind you, everyone else had shown he increased his lead.

It really is a drag at times being in the same party with a bunch of whining fools!

A newbie posted these same words earlier and some jumped on him because a newbie errr...shouldn't say these types of things. How about a guy who's been around for 3 years, can he? The newbies minor mistake in his post was to make it sound like all DUers are whiners... I don't think he meant that. But I do agree with the gist and meaning of his post that indeed there are some whiny chicken littles here at DU.

It really is a drag at times being in the same party with a bunch of whining fools!

Are you open to suggestions?

Speaking of polls and as if you didn't know..........

New York Times polls journalists

Do those so-called liberal journalists really want John Kerry to defeat President Bush?It depends where they work and how you ask, according to an unscientific survey the New York Times conducted during a press party at the Democratic convention.

When 153 journalists were asked anonymously who would be a better president, those from outside the Beltway picked Kerry 3-1, and the ones from Washington favored him 12-1. -- NEW YORK TIMES

You're right. It says something about them that they can't wait a couple of hours to leave the "little people" behind.

There's a thread somewhere....a freeper actually called one of the restaurants (the Diner I think)....IIRC 19 meals at $200......Now I've had a $200 dinner before...and 19 divided into $200 is just a little over $10....The way I read it and from the list of dishes....I'd say the meals cost $200 each.....(Someone also mention TerRACEuh didn't know what CHili was....but that may have been supposition.)

I'll see if I can find the threads.
