50.1 48.0 1.1 TIPP
48 - 47 - 1 Zogby
Pew hit the nail on the head.
Bump!
I'll look at these more closely later.
Pew, Rasmussen, and TIPP are the winnuhs...
Pew, tipp and rasmussen did great. I'm so happy Zogby got exposed for their propaganda.
We can finally put to rest the myth of Zogby as being this great prognosticator.
Pew nailed it...but Rasmussen was very close.
I wonder if Bush could hit the 60mil on the vote count. That would be huge.
I'm a loser, and I'm not the pollster I used to be...I'm a loser...
My CAMEC didn't do too badly ... ;-)
Overestimated turnout a bit, and overestimated the vote "others" would receive, but overall it went pretty well.
Just need a few tweaks for 2008.
Tarrance was the closest. He even included tenths of a percent.
n the wee hours of this morning, I heard gov. b.richardson say "Do not give GWB New Mexico yet, because "we think we have found about 20,000 more votes and maybe a couple of thousand more that could put Kerry over the top. What is going on with this. With the dem machine using folks like jackson, sharpton, trumping voter disenfransing the voters,will this get uglier?
Battleground gets MY vote for MOST ACCURATE because not only
they had Bush up by +4 at the end, but they were CONSISTENT.
Pew suffered with wild random nutty swings.
From what I recall Tipp was fairly consistent(?)
Fox Dynamic was disappointing, too erratic
ARG and Zogby Interactive (the biggest jokes I have ever seen!)
It wasn't as close as the electoral vote seems to show. Bush won the popular vote by 3%, first majority President since his father in 88, I believe.
Can anyone say "MANDATE?"
B - K - Na
51 - 48 - 0
Final National Polls:
48 - 48 - 1 ARG
46 - 48 - 1 FOX
49 - 49 - 1 Gallup
49 - 50 - 1 Marist
48 - 47 - 1 Zogby
These pollsters can all bite me, and Fox was the worst, what an embarassment.
"These pollsters can all bite me, and Fox was the worst, what an embarassment."
"46 - 48 - 1 FOX"
It is obvious that the "new" Fox News is now part of the left wing MSM. Fox News is the same as ABCNNBC BS.
FoxNews was bought out, rolled over like a cheap whore and did its best to defeat GW yesterday and last night.
"I'm so happy Zogby got exposed for their propaganda."
It is obvious that Zogby is the pollster of the crooks in charge of the lunatic left.
He does fairly accurate polling up to his last poll. Then his last poll is nothing more than a cover for all of the voter fraud that the rats will commit in the election.
