1. Then WHY THE H*LL are all the common-taters |

Still talking about the big "bounce"? All day on MSNBC TV they've been spewing this crapola.

2. Because it is part of the screenplay. The polls are accurate |
|
precisely to the extent that you believe them. They are dangerous. They are not irrelevent. But they are fantasy.

3. msnbc and job numbers -- a way you could help elect kerry |
|
The nbc briefing paper you site says that one of the 3 big things that could effect the election is jobs numbers. How about effecting the unemployment numbers. They are based on the people who register with state employment offices. There are actually many more persons unemployed than the number reflects (it is now 5.4 down a tenth of a % from the previous month) Well, how about if all the unemployed kerry supporters be sure to register at their state employment offices. This will give a truer number and bush can quit bragging about a tenth of a % improvement. Pass it on. If your unemployed, there are two registrations you need to have, one at you state employment office and one, to vote. eg

4. One of the great things about these polls, |
|
even if wrong, is that they, along with our restiveness, filtered up to the campaign and reinforced their nervousness. Now things are happening and the hard-hitting effectiveness will start showing up!

Craig Crawford was on MSNBC and was asked if he expected this double digit lead to hold. He said that there was something off about that poll and that the race was pretty much dead even.
SO it is being said just not often enough.
