I am currently reviewing it. Looks like a big difference in the DEM/REPs polled when compared to the LAST newsweek poll, this needs some good research, these poll results don't past the smell test:

They went from over sampling Republicans by 9% in their last poll to oversampling Democrats by 2% so there is an 11% difference in terms of sampling.

That said, this poll is weird when it comes to the time frame in which they polled. If they actually polled like they said, it was between Sept. 30th and October 2nd. That means they polled late Thursday Night, all day Friday, and then Saturday morning. Seems a little unusual to me.

My conclusion, this is a pro-Kerry push poll in order to give the talking heads something to spew about on the Sunday shows. As Rush once said, "The media uses polls to create news, not report on it".
