Looks good. A kerry aide of CNN though was talking about how he expects another car bomb or two in Iraq before the election. He said if this happens, they will jump on it as examples of Bushs' inept strategy. How sick tyo capitalize on our service men's deaths.
Turnout will determine the winner here.
SWEET! electoral-vote.com should be interesting in the morn!
However, I still really, really, really (really) hope that somehow Mr. Kerry's Less-than-honorable discharge info sees the bright light of day tomorrow or Monday. THAT would clinch it.
In that case these are old numbers and I predict the later numbers will have President Bush up even more.
Jobs in PA aren't hard to find, but you have to be willing to start at $8.00 an hour, not $15.00. PA is heavily controlled by unions.
That's it. Game over. Bush wins on Tuesday, barring some cataclismic event. The Mason-Dixon polls were what I was really waiting for, and now I don't have any worries anymore. Woohoo!
They did not. Right there in the Header on the webpage it says this :
MSNBC/Knight-Ridder polls conducted by Mason-Dixon Polling
and Research from Oct. 27 through Oct. 29, 2004
That graphic is not correct. The accompanying story confirms ALL these polls were conducted Oct 26 - 29.
This is unbelievably good news!
the verbage on the link is VERY confusing. When was this dadt obtained???? I read several pieces of info regarding this question.
Is this poll up-to-date or not? Don't leave us hanging, please.
If they hold, we are looking at an absolute blowout on election day.
Anything from the most accurate state poll people showing W with a + anything is fine with me! :)
Twice the article says that these polls were done Oct 27 to 29th. Towards the bottom it says these polls were done Oct 15 to 18th.
I have to assume they were done Oct 27 to 29th. Mason Dixon did polls last week. Why would MSNBC post polls from two weeks ago?
The Oct 15th to 18th must be a misprint.
I'll take it, though
(Not that there's anything wrong with that)
1. Among registered viters, Bush leads Kerry, 48-46
2. Among likely voters, Bush leads Kerry, 49-43
3. Among actual voters ( that is, those who will get their lazy asses up out of bed and really go vote) Bush leads Kerry, 53-40
4. Among voters who will claim the next day that evil Republicans wouldn't allow them to vote, Kerry leads Bush 99-1..
Maybe blowout isn't the right word, but if these numbers are correct, it will be a decisive victory on Tuesday. Perhaps so great that F'n won't even contest it (but I'm not holding my breath on that one).
Something else about these numbers that is worth noting. With the exception of Ohio, Bush is running 2-5 points better in these states than he did in 2000. In Ohio, which is only now finally trending clearly in his direction (better late than never!), he is now running only a point or so less than he did in 2000, when he defeated Gore by 3.5% In Michigan, another hugely important state, he is running three points better than he did four years ago. Now, keep in mind that four years ago the GOP GOTV was poor (causing Bush to underperform in all of these closely contested states), while this year it should be much stronger.
