Zogby is a partisan Arabist hack... and he was soooooo off during the 2004 primaries and 2002 elections...

[Dog]

This poll will be featured on all the weekend shows......count on it.

[cripplecreek]

As a registered Zogby member all I can say is that I wasnt asked....again.

[CWOJackson]

Pass the Depends around the I-hate-Bush crowd, there will be wet pants over this.

[ambrose]

What do you mean... you weren't asked?

6 weeks until the handover to the Iraqi interim government from Bremer.

[cripplecreek]

Let em soak. Ive been thinking about these endless polls and I think conservatives have largely stopped taking part in them.

[Diogenesis]

Zogby is fraud, although beloved by murderous Palestinians (his bro thought the terror state up)
and terrorists and their Democrat dhimmis everywhere.

Yep, count on member boxsmith13 coming here telling us how the election is lost and how we need to warm up to President Kerry.

John Mueller, a political scientist at Ohio State University, says the situation in the US is now "fairly comparable . . . to late '67, early '68 when there was a really substantial decline of support".

It all goes back to Vietnam again....

[BunnySlippers]

But he was the closest of all the pollsters in 2000.

[vandykelastone]

Can't Zogby find a real job? I mean, something useful? Does he believe that being a human windsock for the democrat party is a real job? Maybe he should go back to Utica and work in WalMart? Or something.

[cripplecreek]

Zogby used to call me about once a week to take part in their polls. Its been more than 6 months since ive heard from them. They also used to e-mail poll questions but have long since stopped polling me.

They know that I'm a conservative, they know I'm a christian, they know a lot of things about me. think about it.

Considering the fact that I'm a Mi resident (a battleground state) you would think they would be asking me to take part in these polls pretty regular like they used to.

Zogby collects personal info for later use by Jihad, Inc.

[Southflanknorthpawsis]

Maybe I am weird, but I don't understand such fickleness. If true, I am embarrassed for Americans.

Bush said from the beginning that this would be a long, hard battle; this battle against terrorism. He made no bones about it.

Then as soon as things aren't tied up with a bow on it and a few things go poorly, millions of people have decdided that the good idea of a few months ago is now a bad idea???????

Either the poll is severely skewed or America has more idiots than I imagined.

[ambrose]

So Zogpiss is polling hand selected voters?? I thought it was random telephone calls...

[Williams]

Well, I see another post of a poll saying the country is resolute. But still, if there is any truth to Zogby's results we really do have to conclude there is a flaw in american culture/ character. I've seen it before. The media can drive significant numbers to turn on a policy, and there does not seem to be a common sense safety switch in the american mind.

I always come back to the need for republicans to aggressively defend their policies. A serious mistake is made because republicans thibnk most people will see the justice of their cause.

[cripplecreek]

Go to Zogby and register for their free service, I assume they will ask you the same line of questioning they ask for the pay service. You might be suprised.

[Jorge]

I don't have much confidence in Zogby, but believe that bad news coming out of Iraq has to be bad for Bush, since it's considered his war.

If Iraq starts looking better and our economy continues doing well, I say Bush's numbers will turn around and he wins in November.
