And I'm just merely making the suggestion it is possible that Pew is a tool of the democrats (since Bush and Kerry are not in a dead heat).For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)

YOU JUST BAMMED YOURSELF, BOOHOO BOOHOO. You are the bammer.
"The Gallup Organization has studied human nature and behavior for more than 70 years. Gallup employs many of the world's leading scientists in management, economics, psychology, and sociology."
I trust this poll more then others, especially considering the amount of years they have been in this business.
Which says absolutely nothing to do with how accurately Gallup has been predicting elections.
Why did I bother responding to your nonsense?"Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before. He is full of murderous resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by their ignorance the hard way. "

Did you know immediately, by means of some special knowledge, that Pew was an arm of the Democrats?Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

There is absolutely no way this is poll is correct. The electorate is way, way too polarized for either candidate to have a 14 point lead. With over 90% of each candidate's supporters previously saying they have their mind made up, there is no way the race can swing dramatically.
I would guess a lead for Bush around 3-5 point right now. I have been tracking the state vote totals at www.electoral-vote.com, and many of the state totals have been going up for Bush. Particularly indicative are two polls done in New York showing Kerry's lead slimmed to single digits; a Democratic stronghold like NY being that close is indicative of Bush having gained an advantage. The Bush campaign has seriously outmanuevered the Kerry canpaign, and has gained the advantage. The Kerry camapaign however is doing what it should have been all along- hitting Bush hard on the economy. Kerry's latest ad on www.johnkerry.com on health care was particularly. There are enough bad economic statistics available that Kerry should be able to climb back if he is finally able to stay on message. Expect a tough, close race come November Second.
A word of note though- the candidate leading in the Polls on Labor Day has won the popular vote everytime since modern polling began."I'm moving to the Left" - Lancer
"I imagine the neighbors on your right are estatic." - Slowwhand

Of course maybe Fox has a leftist bias

Really Boshko, all you had to was point to your signature."You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours."--General Sir Charles James Napier

They also said that the electorate was too polarized for either candidate to receive a post-convention bounce. That turned out to be bull****, so why should we believe the same argument in a different guise?
With over 90% of each candidate's supporters previously saying they have their mind made up, there is no way the race can swing dramatically.
People could be changing their minds, you know...KH FOR OWNER!

Or, more likely, Gallup could be an outlier, and the real state of the race could be represented by most other polls, which show it almost tied."Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before.
