1. Looks to me like "Don't Know" is leading

I want to learn more about this Don't Know guy's platform.

CMB is running even with Kerry? Whoa.

2. I know! There both good candidates but to fall behind Lieberman?!

EEK!

[Cleve Steamer]

6. Don't Know is a stalking horse

...for Bil Keane.

[TomNickell]

3. Nobody breaks 20%

That's the real news.

This is still anybody's race.

Except Liebermann.

4. though I like any poll that has Clark

in the top 2, take polls with a grain of salt at this stage.

7. I tend to look at over all trends *which show Dean at the top*

generally speaking....

[Skwmom]

5. I really am suprised that Clark is holding up as well

as he has considering all the hits he's taking from Bush, his fellow candidates and the left. Fortunately, some people can see through the b.s.

Wes Clark. Extraordinary times call for extraordinary leadership.

8. And Kerry, in a ripping 5th-place tie with CMB

"Hello, Boston? We have a problem."

9. Relax, people

These national polls are still measuring mostly name recognition. Not entirely (not as much as before), but largely.

10. Carol tied with Kerry!

Very interesting, but I agree with Elorial.... these polls are still early, and it's a very crowded field.

11. I noticed that tie too. Good for her.

[Donna Zen]

12. Shhhhh!

Clark's name is never to mentioned unless by Shelton. That's the meme...get it?

Clark: All Patriot, No Act.

CNN was talking about the vets running for president...whoops, forgot to mention Clark. Now just why do you think that is? PNAC-Acxion-DLC-MediaWhores is doing a real good job of hyping their #1.

Yes, it is a wonder that Clark has remained at the top when we all have been told that he got in too late. Too late for what? The General Election?

13. National polls are meaningless

at this point the only thing that matters is who leads in IA, NH, and SC. After those 3 we'll have a much narrower field and a MUCH better idea of who the nominee will be
