among all voters Leiberman leads 48-40 among likely voters the race is 46-39 percent. Two polls last week showed a wider gap--ten points in Rasmussen and 20 points in Mason-Dixon (?)
3. Oh, C'mon. I want Ned to win but quoting a 2 point difference
and calling it closing the gap is something I expect the other side to do.This is within the margin of error and shows NO movement.Sorry. I want to see movement but it isn't there yet.
5. What about that poll showing a twenty-point lead for Leiberman?

last week. Don't you think that going from 20-points to 7-points is closing the gap, or are you just referring to the Rasmussen poll--sorry to disappoint you with any good news.
6. You have to look at the methodologies, but the 20pt slip was an outlier
...as opposed to Bush, who's an out and out liar. :) The 8 point spread is a little better aligned with what other polls have been saying. Lamont's still got his work cut out for him.
7. I'd say it just means that Joe's lead isn't as big as we thought it was
The OP is correct that there were some recent polls showing Lieberman up 15 to 20 points. This poll shows good news in that this race is once again competative.
Also, it'll be interesting to see what happens in the final weeks. Ned didn't take the lead in the primary until very late.
