More Lies From The Liars At CNN...
I hate that fu-king station...


They are trying to advance the meme that the debates didn't improve Kerry's standing in the polls... What a crock of sh-t...


Check out the CBS poll... Prior to the first debate Kerry was down by nine... Now he's down by a mere two...

That's impressive...


I'm tired... I'll let a more enterprising DUer elaborate....

Peace

Brian

1. Ignore the polls already.
And consider the source.

Dear CNN,
Why are you only citing the polls that show Bush way ahead? I found many reliable polls that show a tie, and some with the trend of Kerry going up. You seem to feed the public the polls that you believe will allow a sway in public sentiments. I abhor this type of journalism. I respectfully protest your work in attempting to elect George Bush. Further, the Gallup poll used a sample of 34% Republican, 33% Democratic and 32% Independent. This is not representative of the "likely voter" demographics that went to the polls in 2000, and not representative of the current percentage breakdown of voters. In fact the demographics used favor George Bush. A News organization using flawed poll results to attempt to sway its viewers is a travesty to our democracy and should not be work deemed reasonable, balanced or fair.

Concerned Viewer,
XXX XXXXX

Reuters-Zogby Poll - Monday

http://www.reuters.co.uk/newsPackageArticle.jhtml?type=...

The latest three-day tracking poll:

B K N Undec
Saturday-Monday: 45 45 1 7
Friday-Sunday: 45 44
Thursday-Saturday 48 44 (I think)

Bush down 3, Kerry up 1

"This is, as I have said before, the same kind of roller coaster ride we saw in 2000 with the lead changing back and forth and neither candidate able to open up any kind of lead," pollster John Zogby said.

* Bush 4% edge in suburbs
* Kerry comfortable lead in urban areas
* Tied in small cities
* Bush strong lead among rural voters
* Kerry now has 4% lead among Catholics

Electoral-vote.com has been posted above, here it is with his comments.

News from the Votemaster

Kerry's debate lift continues today as a new ARG poll in New Hampshire breaks the tie there and puts him ahead there 49% to 45%. The MoE is 4%, so this should still be considered a statistical tie. The few other state polls don't show much movement. On the state graphs, the lookback window for the regression lines has been dropped to 30 days on the grounds that July and August polls really don't matter much any more.

Here are the polls taken from the 14th (Thursday after the debate) until the 16th.

Bush +2% 48-46-1 RV 10/14-15 Newsweek
Bush +1% 48-47-n RV 10/14-15 Newsweek

NOTE: Which poll is a piece of sh**.
They are odd-man-out. Ignore the so-called 8 point lead.
It is Rove's attempt, through puppets, to stampede sheeple.

3. They prove the point. Kerry wins all three debates but media propped up
their boy blunder with their proBush bias.

They hurriedly redressed the naked emperor after each debate.

7. Stop watching any of those half-baked stations and then tell
their advertisers that you have.
