What do you think of Kerry beating Bush in the current polls?

(1/2) > >>

Lincoln:
I read the paper the other day and apparently Kerry is 12 points ahead with Americans who take an active interest in politics, and 5 points ahead in American voters.

Trauma-san:
You asked what I think, so that's what I'll answer.


My immediate thought is that the polls are inaccurate, so I'm cynical about it.  The news definately has a pro-dem. slant right now, so any news I get from the media I automatically assume is about 50% true.  For instance, they made a big deal about Kerry winning southern states in the primaries ("This proves he can win in the south!!!") but they didn't mention that only 10% of registered democrats even showed up for the primaries!  So, he's winning a majority of 10% of the democrats in the state? LOL... that's just a small example of how they spin shit.  So for all we know, the poll they have is a poll of massachusets or something.  

Don Jacob:
on the real it doesn't really suprise me.

7even:
whoever votes for bush is either a republican right-wing nationalistic patriot, OR a person who doesnt know shit.

I assume in America both things occur quite enough often to make Bush win.

Don Rizzle:
polls are notoriously innaccurate due to the fact that they don't ask evryone so often have a very small sample size compared to the voting population, and can also be easily manipulated to show what ever you want. ie bush could just as easily find a poll that says he is ahead
