He claims that he called it right. Uhm...Didn't he predict Kerry to win more than 300 votes? In what universe is he? His defense of his predictions shows that he knows he is f-----.

He is spinning like a top. If he was so accurate, why did he call Keryr getting 311 EVs at 5:30pm Tuesday?

That's ok. You'll still have some Freepers harping how Zogby is the most accurate pollster around despite the evidence.

LOL, this guy called every key state wrong. So he was "within the margin of error" - I could have thrown a dart at a list of numbers and been just as accurate.

Zogby is really delusional.

If you look at his prez state numbers, he consitently understated the President's support by about 3-5% ... I have not run the numbers, and may not get the chance to, but he really blew the states.

Zogby is trying to have his cake and eat it too. His published numbers were as accurate as he could make them, but starting the Saturday before the election, he started giving interviews interpreting the data and saying that he was detecting a shift toward Kerry and that Kerry would probably win big, etc. But he never changed the individual numbers, because he thinks that his credibility is based on those numbers alone.

He cannot deny, however, that he stood up on Election Day and predicted a big Kerry win in the Electoral College.

My view is that Zogby has been building up political capital in the United States for decades by calling them as well as he could. He acted almost like a sleeper agent, toiling away to position himself to have the greatest possible effect at the critical moment. On Tuesday, he cashed in all of his chips in an attempt to influence this one election. This one was the all-or-nothing battle that he had been working toward for years.

But in the end, it wasn't enough. Now he is trying to pick up the pieces. We must not let him do so. We must not forget what Zogby tried to do here.

What makes it even worse is that Zog claimed he caught a late trend to Kerry that was not reflected in his polls. So, his real prediction was that Kerry would do even better than his already inflated numbers suggested.

This is nothing more than spin by Zogby, and it is a feeble attempt at that.

Zogby did what he was paid to do.......

We will remember!

Sadly enough I saw Pat Robertson's program on the day before the election and he was about to introduce Zogby.

I immediately changed the channel.

Two delusional people who seemingly deserve each other.

I think I have the answer for all the bogus polls and exit polls. The media was setting us up for the RAT lawsuits that never happened. They were going to go with the eletion 2000 game plan that even if Bush won they were going to tarnish the win and hope that the goons in the RAT party rioted making Bush look bad again.
