ZOGBY interactive survey: McCain/Palin leads Obama/Biden 47-45
Edited on Sat Aug-30-08 10:32 PM by GrizzlyMan
Gotta love the Z-Man. He's one crazy bastard.

<snip>
Pollster John Zogby: "Palin is not to be underestimated. Her real strength is that she is authentic, a real mom, an outdoors person, a small town mayor (hey, she has dealt with a small town city council - that alone could be preparation for staring down Vladimir Putin, right?). She is also a reformer."

1. HA! Nice poll. Utterly laughable considering the other polls.

9. How about extremely unreliable?
This guy's star has been falling since 2000. Like someone posted down thread, we'd all be working to get Kerry re-elected if his crappy interactive polls had been even remotely close. He's an idiot.

3. Zogby: Major blowout for Obama expected over Clinton in CA
...He was off by 23 points then.

He lost most of his credibility during the primary season.

10. Actually Zogby's poll says it's 44-43 Obama
with Barr and Nader included (which they will be).

i'm guessing the 47-45 McCain number was without the other candidates.

also, when Ferraro was picked, the nature of the pick helped the ticket in the immediate aftermath, which was lost quickly once questions came up about Ferraro.
