It is very concerning that Bush is stuck in the high 40s.

Everyone who is going to vote for him knows it already.

It is much too close for mid-October.

Let's see what happens today.

In the next couple of days more and more sheeple are going to find out about Kerry and Mrs. Edwards smarmy remarks about the Cheney family because this is getting a lot of MSM play and there is no spin for Kerry.

If we're tied with the women's vote after a partial sample of debate watchers, Kerry's in trouble. If he looks like he's losing momentum, Kerry has no way to come back (other than fraud). The MSM's psychological operation only works if Kerry goes forward, not backward. Kerry doesn't have the popular support, more like Bush haters, to sustain any loss of campaign energy or the Big Mo. Let's continue to pray and hope this is a serious trend for the side of freedom and vision.

Wow! I'll bet the DNC, WaPo, NYT and the Alphabets are frantically rewriting the day's propaganda:

"As our valiant spin-pollsters bravely repel the vicious Republican onslaught in the western hills of Massachusetts, we look forward to Glorrrious Victory as we make Boston our Stalingrad, where the enemy shall advance no further."

I would say to contact the Bush campaign and ask them directly, they would give you a better answer than any of use could. BTW, I am no campaign insider, just a proud Bush supporter ready to help him carry West Virginia again! And my parents will be helping him in Ohio, and my brother in Pennsylvania!

Come on up to Iowa. The fall colors are beautiful. We are in the middle of harvest. We are in a position to win and the people here are wonderful.

Exactly..

Women are the most outraged over it.

I thought it was a cheap shot myself, but I wasn't enraged over it. I just wasn't suprised about it.

My fiance, who was pretty liberal before I met her and brought her to the right on about 60-70% of the issues, and even got her to register Republican for this election, she was FLABBERGASTED over it. She couldn't believe it. It really jacked her up.

Women are pi$$ed about this remark, and it could be the biggest mistake of the election. I'm not sure I would categorize it as a gaffe, because it was calculated and intentional! But they miscalculated badly!

I recommend Iowa. I live in Florida and travel to Iowa regularly and am there now. The union "get out the vote, or else we'll break your legs" effort effort needs to be blunted in Iowa, where the race appears closer. Bush handled the hurricanes well in Florida and appears to be getting stronger non-cuban Hispanic support than last time. I think Florida is now a safe red state.

Time to get the word out regarding Dubya's big mo. This is very bad news for team Kerry/Cahill/Lockhart. Now it's time for the tiny sliver of alleged undecideds to break for the inevitable winner, GWB.

We are getting to the point where the undecideds are just not going to vote. Plus I have a hunch that these polls are underestimating GOP turnout. Look at how off they were in 2002.

If we can't accept Zogby results when they show our man behind, what are we to do with this one?

The point has always been that Zogby has a bias towards Dems. Assuming that is still the case, then W is in a very strong position - even including the bias.

Here is another possible take on Zogby's polling right now based on suspicions (evidence also) that we have all had about the massive fraud effort. He knows that he cannot possibly show Kerry with any significant lead prior to Election Day because the dynamcis of the race are such that it would be laughed at and discredited by other pollsters. So you give Bush a small lead and suddenly Kerry "surges" at the end as the comeback kid so that vote fraud doesn't raise as many red flags by the general public.

Removing tinfoil hat now :)

He's engaged in fraud throughout the debates! It's very easy to say "I'll fix everything" with no details when you're the challenger. I just hope we don't get to see the dog's breakfast he'd create if actually elected... :-P

Both turnouts are going to be bigger, I'm positive on that.

The question is, how big will the college "Rock the vote" crowd turnout.

I have a bad feeling it'll be pretty decent size, but I also know evangelicals who missed 2000 are going to be out bigtime.

Two things:

1) It is all about the trends. Check my post #16. If all the polls trend the same way then it is more likely (NB: likely not certain) that they are showing an underlying trend. So we will have to wait and see what the other polls show today.

2) If the polls (whether we trust them or not) show W up post-debate it makes it so much harder for the MSM to spin that Kerry won the debates and has the momentum.

In the last debate, IMO, Bush, as usual, connected on a gut level.

As usual, Kerry disconnected on a gut level.
