3. Is This an Objective Poll?
I'm not trying to sound negative, but is the Democracy Corps Poll a poll run by the Democratic party? If it is, I'm tempted to thing that it might be a little friendly toward Kerry.

I'm hoping to heaven that it's an objective poll, though. I have been looking for good polling news for Kerry for weeks now. If this poll is on the mark and Kerry is ahead by 2 percent nationally, this election is over. The undecided vote will break big-time for JK, and he'lll take nearly all of the battleground states.

Does anyone know about this polling outfit's reputation?

5. Carville - Greenberg's polling firm. But who's keeping track?
Seriously, as pollsters, these guys are very credible, even if they do have a political bias.

7. I'm Relieved to Hear That It's Well-Regarded
Thanks for the background info on Democracy Corps.

Frankly (and I'm ashamed to admit it), I had never heard of this polling outfit until I read this post. It's great to hear that this group has a good reputation. I have consistently heard that the Zogby group had the 2000 election called more accurately than other other pollster. I had no idea that Democracy Corps also had it called pretty close.

I feel a lot better about the figures that f-junkie posted about.

And I'm feeling a lot better about NOV. 2!!!!

GO KERRY - EDWARDS!
LET'S MAKE IT A LANDSLIDE!

13. That's just with LVs
Just wait until all the "unlikely" voters weigh in this year.

I have a friend at work who has never once voted. Not out of laziness, but because he's a total conspiracy theorist. He thinks our whole government is decided by Skull & Bones and our votes mean nothing.

So GUESS WHAT. I found out yesterday that he is registered to vote and will be voting Nov. 2. He told me that he's just too fed up and wants to be a part of the uprising against the Bush machine. Even if it doesn't work, he wants to say he tried.
