"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!

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!
