Someone else says Bush is behind by 1% in the same poll. What gives???
That was in a 3 way...hrad to head Bush is behind a point!! And this was after the tape came out!!
and bush is BEHIND 1% with men? ya right...totally believable poll, lol
Damn Fox always trashes Bush at the end.Really MSM in disguise!
But didn't someone tell me that the last Fox poll should be regarded as really reliable? When's that one? Is this it?
I'll say again: I pray God gives America what we need in a leader (between the two), not what we deserve.

Skepticism is in order about his poll. I really think Bush has a five point lead, of likely voters.
I think Fox is simply throwing us a Halloween scare ;)
Weekend polling favors Democrats. Nothing surprising here and
no big changes either.
A couple of this to consider:
1) As have been made clear here on FR, Republicans always poll worse on the weekends.
2) Fox News/Opinion Dynamics is on a 2 day rolling average making it more volatile. A spike on a one day will make large swings in the poll.
3) Interesting enough this poll is showing a ceiling that Kerry doesn't seem to be able to get over. Kerry so far hasn't got above 46.
Bush is at 50% mark in other polls.
the poll had Bush ahead by 1% with women and behind 1% with men...really - do you expect Bush to LOSE among men? not gonna happen - he'll win men by 10-15 points nationwide
PEOPLE,
Polls are score keeping, not score deciding.
I am working phone banks in Reno this weekend. I am a Utah resident and flew here. This is not intended to be admirable because There Are People Here From Texas who did the same thing. The Texas Strike Force has 1500 willing to volunteer. They divided themselves among the ten battlegrounds.
Phone banks are VERY HARD WORK, and maybe too much to ask of Freepers, who prefer to celebrate our progress online. But if you think you are tough enough to endure some hangups and even some "Yeah, we already voted Bush and I'm really glad you're working hard for him, where are you from and why are you supporting him?"
That's the hard part. Forcing yourself not to celebrate with the early voter supporters. They Eat Time. You have to keep calling. It's about numbers.
Anyway, if you think you're tough enough, get into a battlegound phone banks today and tomorrow. Have to drive 100 miles? Oh, okay, I guess that's too difficult. All you have to do is look online for a county campaign headquarters, call them and ask to volunteer. They will say yes. Get in your car and drive there, sit down, pick up a cellphone sitting there and start calling from the list.
Damn people. We really need to get out the vote. Lose the overconfidence already, everyone. The poll numbers are sliding and the EVs don't look good. Factor in the fraud and we're surely going to lose this election.
Poor daschle is down 3.3 to 38.2. Ha HA Tommie, better put some ice on that.
Its 270 votes and polls in about ten States that count. These national polls tell you nothing 48 hours before a Presidential election.
W has about 235. He needs 35 EV's. That is something to obsess over.
oops - I mean down by 2% among men
My guess from looking at all these internals is that they can't catch conservative men on Fridays and Saturdays
also said 93% were absolute for Kerry
91% for Bush
BullSh*t
Republicnas always poll bad on weekends. We've known this. Everyone needs to calm down.
Shrum is trying to get off of the topic of terrorism. Wonder why?
GOTV
LV tied, RV Kerry +1
No way Kerry is a head with men, no way.
Troll?

Anybody see the guy on fox in the window with flip flops ? :)
ATTENTION... The CAMEC (Search FR for CAMEC) results will be released within the next few HOURS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I feel like a Red Socks fan must feel like for 86 years.
I'm a troll because I'm a realist?
No, not a troll. Just a newbie with a bad case of jitters.
All of the tracking polls show the same...ties.

The media, FNC included, has a vested interest in showing a tight race right up to the election. It would not surprise me in the least to see liberal outlets touting Bush ahead, and conversely conservative outlets showing Kerry ahead, just to keep their viewers tuned in. In order to show accuracy for the next election cycle, the media will show their polls converging today and tomorrow, with a 3-5% victory for Bush. IMHO.
Relax and wait.
We are either out stimulating the economy with our families or working 80 hours in our small businesses.
Campaigning also gets us out of the house.
WELCOME, TROLL!!!!!
ENJOY YOUR LAST TWO DAYS OF DELUSION!!!!!!!!
All of this is within the margin of error. Unless you see a 4 or 5 point swing, it doesn't mean anything. Secondly, at this point, the national polls don't mean much. It's what's going on in the battleground states that matters now. From just a common sense perspective, I can't believe that Bush's numbers went down over the last two days. People, for the most part, have already made up their minds.
No, you're a troll if you signed-up 7 days ago with the intent to dispirit Republicans.
Actually, the only appropriate subject for obsession today is "What am I doing to get out the vote? Am I working phone banks? Walking precincts?"
Shrum looks pretty scared on FNS with Wallace. He has tried to change the subject 4 times and Wallace called him on it each and every time.
Why is that? Is cheney still gonna do the hula in hawaii later today? Wonder why that is?
You are a realist--please explain. thx
Of course not. Welcome to Free Republic. I disagree that we are surely going to lose, I am an optimist!
Cedric, you are a little jittery on the 'troll' trigger. Lots of people sign up around big events. Sure, look at the date, but don't forget to look at the content.
Anybody here have the trending numbers for Fox/Op?
I think we have to consider the "tape" hurt W..."still haven't got bin laden," and the MSM is STILL bashing him over the "missing explosives."
The people making up their minds now are just watching a little news for a change. They are idiots.
