polls polls! We got 'dem polls!
But what polls are they talkin' 'bout?

Some new public opinion polls indicate Massachusetts Senator John Kerry is widening his lead in advance of Tuesday's New Hampshire presidential primary.

The latest polls show Senator Kerry expanding his lead here in New Hampshire with a close battle for second place now developing between former Vermont Governor Howard Dean and retired U.S. Army General Wesley Clark.

In one poll, Senator Kerry had opened up a 25-point lead over his rivals. That same poll indicated that General Clark has now moved into second place ahead of Mr. Dean, who had been leading in New Hampshire polls for months.

(YET) Another poll showed candidates Clark and Dean in a dead heat for second place. A third place finish here in New Hampshire by Howard Dean could be a major blow to his hopes of winning the Democratic Party's presidential nomination.

2. Edwards' goes in the middle
but I like Kerry also. I think we all kind of took him for granted, early in the campaign and got enamored by the flesh meat.

3. Tracking polls are far more accurate than daily polls
as they indicate sustained momentum over time, rather than a one-time photo of a single day.

Thanks for the link!
