Bush significant lead in FL?
Can someone please show me this poll. Some USA Today reporter was just saying he doesn't have a big lead but a significant one. Can someone please show me this poll. Thanks in advance

3. Kerry is ahead according to Zogby
Bush only has 47% support, evidently. I guess that means the Repubs will be up to their usual tricks. Perhaps we'll catch them in the act this time.

4. American taxpayers are paying for that lead
Homeowners who didn't pay for flood, homeowners, and hurricane insurance are getting their homes fixed at FEMA's expense. 13% of undecided voters declared that they were leaning to * because of the way * handled the hurricane. 77% said it didn't make any difference. But 13%, here in Florida, that's lots of potential votes. I, like many others, pay big bucks for flood and hurricane insurance and it is something that should be brought to everyone's attention. Don't ask me for a link. It was a local news station this AM.

5. the last two polls show....
...Kerry leading in Florida.

The October 6th ARG poll has him up, as does the latest Zogby poll.

The guy at www.electoral-vote.com has his head up his ass. I have no idea why he is using Rasmussen or even Gallup at this point.

7. IGNORE Gallup
they constantly skew the raw polling data-(which usually has Kerry leading) by running it through the 2000 election filter. Gallup is known for their wierd polling which only starts becoming believable, and reliable, a few days before the election. If Kerry is ahead in a Gallup poll on Oct 30-it's in the bank.

8. the guy at e-vote.com
