President Bush made a big difference in this race, IMO. he campaigned hard for Allard. Allard started out behind in fundraising but caught up. He appeared to be running a not sufficiently aggressive campaign for a while and so it became fashionable to pick him to lose. Republicans had a good turnout operation and the Christian conservative vote in and around Colorado Springs was huge for Allard. I think the GOP turnout was simply much greater than expected in this race.

That explains some of it, but I mean the local papers had this neck-and-neck and Zogby (idiot) must have transposed his numbers through some spreadsheet snafu.
