Saudi owned Time making up polls:

The best part is if you read the details of the poll, it was done even before the convention speeches were given, Aug 31 - Sep 2.  So in reality, there is no possiblity this is measuring some bounce as they speeches hadn't even been given yet and the convention hadn't even occurred.

So tell me, why would a poll taken these days, even if run by legitimate means, have skewed results in favor of Bush?  Right, because Republicans and Bush-liking moderates and independents and the few Democrats open to hearing Bush were the ones sitting home watching the convention, and so near the phone ready and willing to answer political polls, while the Democrats and moderates/independents and Republicans who don't like Bush were off doing anything else.

1. Thanks for that link
They see it almost exactly as I do except I don't agree with their assessment of Zogby.

2. I don't get that


Why would Republicans be away from home during the DNC anymore than Democrats would be away from home during the RNC?

I don't deny Dems didn't watch the RNC, but using the idea they weren't even home is a stretch.
