Clear proof that the CNN/Gallup Bush Job Rating poll is biased!
Advertisements [?]
Edited on Thu Apr-01-04 12:55 AM by TruthIsAll
CNN/Gallup: has * higher in 30 of 38 months vs. the average of 10 other polls.

The average Bush CNN/Gallup job rating for 38 months is 64.92%
The average for 10 other Polls is 62.54%
The difference of 2.38% is significant.

The bias has increased over the last 7 months as Bush has dropped below 50%. Over this period, CNN has Bush at a 55% average. The other 10 pollsters have him at 51.26%, an even larger 3.74% deviation. The current Bush trend reversal is a joke. Something is afoot.

CNN 10 diff
55 51.9 3.1
54 51.9 2.1
63 55.6 7.4
60 53.9 6.1
51 49.5 1.5
49 48.4 0.6
53 47.7 5.3

Average
55 51.26 3.74

The most recent CNN poll has Bush at 53%, up from 49% a few weeks ago. This is a sign of desperation and an obvious attempt to fool the public into thinking that Bush is gaining popularity at Kerry's expense. Bush should now be at 47% based on the trend and Clarke's destruction of his phony "War President" image. And the Medicare scandal is percolating.

Check this thread which has Bush 38 month job ratings for the 11 polls:
