1. thanks

for posting good news.

[THUNDER HANDS]

2. when did Maine break for Kerry

I thought it was closer than that, wow!

[MockSwede]

16. MAINE in a landslide

I'm working weekly to get Maine K/E. Not the most active in the office either. We are going to go K/E. Try out these posters to add to you K/E lawn signs.

23. Probably around when Kerry won the primaries

he's a good neighbor and Democrat- something Mainers like.

[Pirate Smile]

3. Did these all just come out today?

[newsguyatl]

5. yes

[KittyWampus]

4. Newsguy, Let's Hope This Thing Keeps Rolling Down The Track

and we get to celebrate Nov. 3rd.

[napi21]

7. I hope it doesn't make the polls!

Because, I'm afraid if the polls make it look like Kerry is too far ahead, too many people will say it doesn't matter if they vote, Kerry will win anyway!

I love GOOD NEWS, but I really do want the polls to be neck n neck.

[puddycat]

Yes, the tight polls are a good thing!

These polls may give us all a heart attack, but all we have to do is drag ourselves to vote before we keel over.

[silverweb]

12. Same here.

We need everyone to turn out and vote. We have no room for complacency at all.

[Cha]

20. People should want to vote as their part

in making history for the most important election in our lifetime!

The more the merrier..WE want the popular and the electoral!



Thanks, newsguyat, for these numbers!

[AlamoDemoc]

9. Hallelujah

Thanks for the post

[sonicx]

6. those ME and NH numbers look too good to be true

i hope they are right.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

8. we'll just average them with the crappy zogby numbers...

I'd like to see how big his operation is...


I think he's winging the polls....

[MockSwede]

18. ME numbers

I do think we've got Maine. EVERYONE I talk to in my telephone canvassing is pissed at W. The folks who say 'my voting is private' is a surrogate answer for 'I voted for W last time and NOW I'm embarrassed to say anything to you."

[PATRICK]

10. those kiddie polls

of all types show a far away victory for Kerry. Normally this is just good fun, but the margin is very clear. They are never wrong in those cases.

The major polls this year are too skewed, intimidated, frightened by the close scares of 2000 and corrupted by the media usage game as never before.

They only rely on common sense vwith colored eyeglasses anyway, as much as us. Our anecdotal and grass roots experience is more to the point. All the enthusiasm, the anger, the groundswell tilts Kerry. Only Bush is having serious defections from his base(I mean real conservatives and libertarians, military and business). And more importantly, from past sad experience in rooting for losing campaigns, Bush is the only one relying on fantasy and presumptions divorced from context.

[TwilightZone]

11. Good news, indeed.

I just hope that Kerry can pull away and win Florida by enough votes to ensure that dirty tricks and the Supreme Court don't decide it again!

If it's still basically tied in Florida on Election Day, Kerry should win because the undecideds should swing his way.

[Sean Reynolds]

13. Another Nevada poll you can add newsguyatl

Las Vegas Sun poll:

Bush: 45
Kerry: 41

http://www.lasvegassun.com/sunbin/stories/sun/2004/oct/22/517709717.html

Kerry narrowed Bush's lead from the last poll.

[lancdem]

14. And he's at 45 percent, which is extremely poor

[MockSwede]

15. Print Signs for ME

http://homepage.mac.com/michaelalden/bushwackers/index.html

Great place for some * bashing posters. We've been kicking butt for four weeks. I'm the only K/E on Oak Grove Drive and Mike is the only one on Clover Lane.

Good stuff. Make suggestions, please. "Idiots for W" is my next poster.

[6th Borough]

17. On behalf of all Florida Democrats, I apologize for the drama.

I'm going to remain actively involved past this election. The other "Big 4" states (NY,TX,CA) are all firmly locked down for the foreseeable future. Considering we will probably pass NY in EV's after the next census, I'm looking at the long term nearly as intensly as the immediate. Based on demographics and values (voters have passed constitutional amendments for providing universal Pre-K education, class size limitations, heck, the rights of pigs not to be penned while pregnant) I believe it is an honest possibility for FL to stop swinging and join in a steady relationship with the Democratic Party.

[floridaguy]

19. Southwest Florida is definitely moving to the Left

This year, Sarasota Dems took over the majority, and the Dem parties in the Ft. Myers/Naples area are stronger than they've ever been. After Kerry wins, it will only get better.

I'm so f*cking tired of living under the clouds of two Bushes and the repressive nature of these damn Rethuglicans.

Thankfully, they're dying off at a pretty good rate :evilgrin:

[JHBowden]

21. We need to get our shit together in Wisconsin and Iowa.

22. right wing

site. I won't even click there. Regardless, Kerry is likely slightly ahead or tied in both.
