A majority would vote for a Democrat over President Bush if an election were held this year, according to a CNN/USA Today/Gallup Poll released Tuesday.

In the latest poll, 55 percent of the respondents said that they would vote for the Democratic candidate if Bush were again running for the presidency this year.

Alas, for the lame stream media and the dumocrats, there ain't no election this year and if there were Bush wouldn't be the nominee anyway.

Additionally this poll pits Dubya against a mythical rat candidate...not Shrillery, Gore, Kerry, or Dean. Now add in the usual LSM poll tampering and spin, and this story is not only irrelevant but it could actually lower the reader's intellegence.

I see a whole new skit for Jeff Foxworthy in this.
George Bush might lose an election if...

...George Soros had more money.

...Hillary Clinton had a penis.

...John Kerry had a penis.

...MoveOn.org moved on.

...Dan Rather had a Selectric.

...Algore knew who Anita Broadrick is.

Holy hell, mother of God...why do they keep doing this to themselves? The DNC press corps can only run a phantom election held during a trying time of a Presidency?? Well, no schitt. Too bad this is'nt a campaign and an actual Presidency or boy, oh boy.

DNC press corps is stretching, stretching, I think they are about to snap.

LOL: . . . a poll that purports to predict voting behavior based on a survey of 'ADULTS ONLY' vs 'LIKELY VOTERS' -- too funny!.

[FYI: In keeping with its recently revised 'weighting' methodology, Gallup is currently oversampling Democrats/Democrat-leaning Independents!]


IMPORTANT TIDBITS FROM A FLAWED POLL:

1.) The President's job approval rating is UP -- Given the poll's overweighting of Democrats/Democrat-leaning Independents, this result serves to underscore THE PRESIDENT'S CONTINUED STRENGTH AMONG REPUBLICANS!

2.) The percentage of respondents who believe the Iraq War was a mistake DROPPED BY 10 POINTS!

"These polls are now a case of OCD for the MSM. They have to remind us each week that we shouldn't like Bush and he is a failure. Yet a poll of 800-1000 represents the sentiment of a nation? Hardly. When these push polls come out the titles are so misleading. It should read "a poll of 800 people feel Bush is doing lousy" Not "America now convinced Bush is lousy" When a nation is polled it is called an election."


Your comments are so insightful, they deserve a second post!

Every President that has ever lived has probably had a patch like this.
The un-American Democrats have been squawking and there has been no reply from the Republicans, so of course his ratings would slide.
If there was an election GWB would be publicly out there on an offensive and this would rebound in a week.

OOPS, I FORGOT . . . THE CNN/GALLUP/USATODAY POLL CALLED THE 2004 ELECTION PRECISELY -- NOT! [FYI: Gallup called the election for Kerry . . . I guess they're still trying!]


BTW: I wonder what such a poll would have discovered about President Reagan in late 1981, 1982 and 1983 when he averaged a job approval rating of 44% for each of the latter two years!

But these same polls showed Bush lost both times he ran, and he is not running for anything any more!
