More good news comin' (poll)

[troublemaker]

From today's ABC News NOTE:

4. With all due respect to Newsweek and Gallup, hold onto your hat and hair for tonight's ABC News/ Washington Post poll. And please say "boost" or "bump," and not "bounce."

2. Thanks for the tip!

I hope it's good news. It sounds like it.

3. Kerry will probably be ahead by 8-10 points

And they'll call it a dead heat, or say Bush is actually ahead in the headline. Bank on it.

4. how d'ya know it's good news?

5. "With all due respect to Newsweek and Gallup" implies that

their own poll (ABC) will disagree with those two. Both Newsweek and Gallup have provided the basis for the "no bounce" story.

From thir tease one expects a very large Kerry move.

6. I get the sense from reading it

the results are different from the CNN and Gallup polls, which showed no bounce or a modest bounce. That leads me to think it's a nice bounce. Plus, other items in the note show Bush having problems.

7. with 17,000+ crowds where they were only expecting about 3000

14. Bowling Green OH had big crowds too

and not enough metal detectors so many didn't even stay in the sun to get a glimpse

8. "Hang on to your hat," "boost," and "bump"

are all positive words/phrases. Using "bounce" implies that what goes up must come down. That's my take anyway. :-)

9. I watched The Capital Gang on Saturday...

and Al Hunt said not to believe any poll that comes out before Monday.

[City Lights]

10. Lots of media types said that last week.

Then a "poll" came out that could be used as a negative for Kerry and the whores went wild. cheney them.

[West Coast Democrat]

12. I'm sure the whores went wild! I don't normally watch CNN or the others

Fortunately, on Capital Gang on Saturday most of the roundtable was very positive about the convention and about Kerry's speech. Even Kate O'Beirne had to admit Kerry gave a good speech.

13. And this is Monday

15. I hope it's good news....

the last ABC poll was garbage.
