Chuck Todd on Inside Politics: Pollsters CYA'ing
Just what we thought, pollsters are afraid to report what they are really seeing or hearing, to CYA.

B/C looking for scenario in which they could lose certain states like OH, FL, PA and still pull it off.

Hey Chuck, it's ALL BULLSHIT and we DON'T believe it!!!

2. That was funny. He was talking about how there are MORE states now
that have conflicting polls or are within the MOE. Everyone is confused and no one knows how to read the polls. The "experts" are clueless.

Tell us something we don't already know, why don'tcha!

6. The tone of their messages (both of them) is definitely RIGHT. They
try hard to report straight on Washington Journal, but they have such a right slant that I don't even listen to them. Now, one of them is all dolled up on Fox (I think it's fox).

Interesting - we are the wolves, enemies of the country according to Bush's world. Then, from our side, the enemy is the fox.

Oh, the stupid and unimportant symbols.

4. They Never Had Such A Scenario
Both Ohio & Florida were considered in the bag by this regime until the voting started, now they're in panic mode.

There's no way Bunnypants will win Michigan or Minnesota and after seeing all those folks in Milwaukee & Madison today, Wisconsin is all but a done deal as well. What's left? Iowa? I keep saying the Kerry/Vilasack machine is stelth and will come out big...so what else is there, Chuck?

Now let's see where they send Bunnypants after the Ahnuld show tomorrow. Will he stay hidden in red area of his battleground or have to retrench to cover his ass in his base states. My bets are he's got a trip to Colorado and Missouri still to make.

5. No way * gets Mich
My family lives in north west MI - very republican area. To get Michigan, Bush will need lots of votes to counter the southern areas in and around Detroit, but the Kerry signs in NW MI are outnumbering the * signs by 2 to 1 at least, so it's not going to happen.
