A 14% Davis lead. Either Simon's inhouse pollsters are screwing their polls up, since they show Simon leading, or are being dishonest with Simon.

If memory serves, Simon's inhouse polls show him with a 7% lead. Couple that with Davis lead in this poll and you have a 21% swing.

One, or both of the polls are way off and the accurate picture is not being presented.

I'm worried, too. I think that the media, particularly the Los Angeles Times, are going to go full-bore after Simon and make sure Davis wins. Simon's not going to get a a fair shake from the media. He needs to get on the air, ASAP.

Here's Simon's camp's take on what you say Click this thread...

"One, or both of the polls are way off and the accurate picture is not being presented."

Yeah, it's this one. One look at Davis pulling 15% of Republicans made me laugh so hard I'll feel good the rest of the day.

50% negatives for an incumbant? Let's say it all together: Davis is un-re-elect-able!

Simon says: BUMP!

I've seen four polls now, and Simon has a small lead in three of them.

I don't care what anybody says, this race is wide open. And I'd rather have unknown Simon's fav/unfav numbers than incumbent Gray-out's.

But I'd rather have Gray-out's war chest.

The Field poll is the one with the problem. They are polling ALL ADULTS -- not likely voters, not even registered voters, but anyone who answers the phone.

Field are notoriusly inaccurate.

By the way the California Teachers Association Poll last week showed Simon 41% and Davis 37% -- and believe me they are not friends of Simon's.
