1. As surprising

as it may be, they were pretty accurate in '00. They had the race tied at 44 I think.

2. PLEASE...PLEASE...PLEASE...

This is incredible news. Thanks for posting!

3. 45% in Missouri? That's terrible.

I've been listening to *'s speeches over the weekend and it may be wishful thinking, but he sounds like he is pleading with voters.

11. The Big Mo as in

the big Momentum, I believe. Not MO the state. ;)

4. Maybe they're trying to tell kerry supporters to stay home, as the battle

while injecting motivation to the bush side.

9. bingo...trying to incite their base to go vote...Fox GOTV...n/t

5. Hmmmm.........

I becoming suspicious of Fox. First Tucker calls it for Kerry, then Fox polls show Kerry breaking away in places we were once writing off. I'm all for it if it is true, but do you think they want Dem's to get over confident and stay home Tuesday? I'm suspicious.

6. I don't trust them...

they'll show a MAJOR and IMMEDIATE decline tomorrow with headlines that it's the largest one day drop in the history of polling... :puke:

7. That clinches it

First the Sox

Third the Fox Poll

Yup, only thing left to check is some entrails

(Sounds of knives being sharpened)

"Anybody seen Hannity lately?"

8. Darn liberal media. (nt)

10. Bush was leading in this poll just a few days ago.

[Sean Reynolds]

12. He was up 5 a couple of days ago.

Only up 2 yesterday, now down.....oooooh.

13. 23 point shift of Independents. WTF?

Check this out:


"In mid-October, Bush held a seven-point lead over Kerry among likely voters overall. Since then, independent voters have shifted from giving an 18-point lead Bush to giving a slim five-point edge to Kerry today."

It's good news and I'll take it, but WTF? Either Bush is doing quite badly or Faux needs to get a new polling company.

14. Beautiful Blue Missouri? Could it be?

Glad to hear my old home state might go blue after all. Now if we can just keep Florida the lovely shade of blue it is currently, I will be very happy indeed!
