What a crock of shit...new field poll on CA REcall

[jeter]

It shows support for Recall dwindling and Bustamante opening up a "small lead" 30% to 25%. Then it goes on to say that they were "virtually tied" in the last Field Poll.

Wrong. Swartzenegger had 22% to Bustamante's 18% in the last Field Poll. That was released two days before the LA Times released a poll showing Bustamante leading by 13%. The Field Poll is conducted by out favorite pollster Frank Luntz. Who will go down in infamy by predicting, the day before the 2000 election, that "it is impossible for George W. Bush to lose the popular vote."

So basically since then, Bustamante has climbed 12% to Arnold's 3%. I say support for the recall itself is closer to 50%.

But of course this is the one that will be spun.

2. I think his internals must be worse

Didn't Ubershit just release a series of commercials? Now he drops out. It must be because Arnold is desperate.

4. Yeah, I heard a Ueberroth ad on the radio...

... on Saturday night.

Sorry if I'm being dense or something, but I just woke up. Where have you heard that he's dropping out?

3. Actually, Field Poll is one of the most accurate polls in the country

If anyone will call this election, it'll be FP.

5. Yes, Field Poll is very reputable

. . . and it's not conducted by Frank Luntz, who's a fraud.

8. The Iowa Electronic Markets show...

a distinct downturn for Ahnold and a gradual increase for Bustamante over the past week. Looks to be close though for who will get the most votes.
