Go read the questions at the PSMBC website. Pure push polling. Way too many "if or" questions. Clearly designed to push the respondent to a predetermined response.

Then read below. Weekend poll, no mention of how they weighted the sample, registered not likely voters. Based on the result pretty obvious they over sampled Democrats and "Independents" yet again.

The NBC/Journal poll was conducted of 1,009 registered voters from Sept. 8-11, and it has a margin of error of plus-minus 3.1 percentage points. It comes after several major events, including the news of the thwarted terrorist plot in London, the end of hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah, the one-year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina and the buildup to the fifth anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

hmmm Sept 8 to 11.. Seems like this does not fully include the combo of the Path to 9/11 and then the Presidents Speech on Monday night..

Seems like the next poll will show are bigger uptick.

Dems seem likely to pick up midterm seats...

I thought it was a sure thing that they'd take control of the House but now the left stream media is telling me it only SEEMS likely that they'll pick up some seats.

I'm confused........[sarcasm]

I don't see the breakdown of the oversampled Islamocrats.
