Well CNN/USAToday/GALLUP say Bush is up by 8 in latest poll, but then says in the article that 8 points is "only on the cusp of the margin of error"... WTF??? What poll has a +/- margin of error of 8 points? Most are around 4 points margin of error.
I get so sick of the medias attempt to portray every race as close when it clearly isn't just to hype it more and get more readers/viewers.
And 4 points itself is too wide a margin of error--it means the poll-takers aren't quite confident about their poll (gee, surprised?) Polls with a 3 +/- margin of error are better, statistically speaking.
Of course, I'm overlooking the fact that the only poll that counts takes place on November 2--worrying about Bush being up or down in a daily poll is like worring that a small gust means a tornado is coming.
