1. Holy crap...

2. Looks like Bush is losing ground there.

compare being 0-1% apart in April and May to being 5% apart in June.

3. Republicans are voting Kerry in FL

I volunteer every day at Dem HQ's in Sarasota. I talk to more than 5 or 6 republicans daily who call the office and tell me that "he's crazy", "I have voted republican my entire life, but he's gotta go" and on and on. Fifteen to sixteen republicans showing up at Kerry meets to declare themselves as new democrats to get rid of "him." If I didn't hear it myself daily, I wouldn't believe it, but there it is. They're pissed, disgusted, scared and extremely motivated to get him voted out.
It's a beautiful thing.

4. You can tell by the LIKELY VOTERS number.

LIKELY voter polls usually skew Republican. Now even that figure shows Kerry ahead.

5. My Mom votes in Florida and she is voting Nader. I am not arguing with

her as she voted Bush in 2000 and I figure this is better than making the same mistake twice.
