You'll hear about this non-stop all week on Faux news.

"Bush up by 10 points!... err sorry.. we mean, this just in, Bush is leading the polls by 10 points according to our friends at..err.. according to Harris, a completely Fair and Balanced(tm) polling company"

:glugglug

In one recent poll that showed Kerry ahead, the repub. talking heads complained because they said most of those polled were registered dems, lmao.
Conclusion? Polls are Useless, regardless of whether you like the results or not.

Heres my "poll" :321GFY :2 cents: hehe

President Bush's lead over Kerry widens and Cabinet members' ratings also rise

ROCHESTER, N.Y., June 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Is it the effect of the nation's
memories of Ronald Reagan or the expanding economy? Whatever the cause, the
latest Harris Poll has a lot of good news for President Bush and the
Republicans. The good news includes:

* A very modest improvement in President Bush's job ratings (which is
within the possible margin of sampling error) to 50% positive, 49%
negative.
* Significantly improved job ratings for Vice President Dick Cheney
(from 36% positive to 42% positive), Secretary of State Colin Powell
(from 63% positive to 67% positive), and Attorney General John
Ashhahahahaha (from 40% positive to 43% positive).
* Improved ratings for the Republicans in Congress (from 35% to 39%
positive), House Speaker Dennis Hastert (from 25% to 29% positive),
and Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (from 26% to 30% positive).

However, the most startling change in the new Harris Poll compared to a
comparable survey in April, is that President Bush has widened his lead over
Senator John Kerry, from three points among likely voters then to 10 points
now.

What Does History Tell Us?
President Bush's June ratings suggest that the Presidential race is still
wide open. His current ratings are better than the June ratings of recent
presidents who were not re-elected (George H.W. Bush, Carter, Ford and
Johnson) but worse than the June ratings of the three who were re-elected
(Clinton, Reagan and Nixon).

PRESIDENT BUSH AND HIS PREDECESSORS
JOB APPROVAL RATINGS
President Date Positive Negative Not Sure Re-elected
George W. Bush June 2004 50 49 1 ?
Clinton June 1996 55 45 1 Yes
George H.W. Bush June 1992 32 67 1 No
Reagan June 1984 55 45 * Yes
Carter June 1980 26 73 1 No
Ford June 1976 41 57 2 No
Nixon June 1972 56 42 2 Yes
Johnson June 1968 45 No data No data No
(did not run)

*=Less than 0.5 percent

These are the results of a nationwide telephone survey of 991 adults by
Harris interactive conducted between June 8 and 15.

BUSH VS. KERRY

I don't know if this poll was actually taken in Rochester or not, but this city is largely Republican.

I'm saying that the Harris poll is not a survey of Rochester residents. I've read the methodology of that poll. Rochester is just where their headquarters is located.

Harris Communications. Their offices aren't too far from me and I had know clue that they were the "Harris Poll" people. Thanks for answering a question that pops into my head each time I drive by.

I wasn't making an excuse. Only read the numbers and made a statement. I could care less about the results. Votes are what count...not polls.

Centurion 06-20-2004 01:51 PM

Few of these polls have any real meaning now.
Starting in late September, THEN poll reading will be much more interesting and meaningful.

Until then..Nader could take the lead!:1orglaugh

Just curious. Why do you not like the electoral system?

well..it seems more "democratic" to me if the president gets chosen directly by the people..
even if most people voted for gore for instance bush still won due to having more electoral votes..

Bansheelinks 06-22-2004 01:53 PM

ive seen polls later than this.......and they have Bush's approval ratings falling even more and Kerry in the lead

:)

spanky part 2 06-22-2004 02:57 PM

That's ok, I just saw on cnn the other day that no incumbent president who had an approval rating below 50% in May has ever been re-elected.

Bush' approval rating in may was 47%

Looks like we have a new president.

neewwman 06-22-2004 03:14 PM

If Bush wins I'll seriously cry.
I'm just counting the weeks until he's gone.

I heard that. My view of getting rid of Bush is entirely pragmatic. He's bad news for our industry, simple as that. I'll let the others whine about his foreign policy, etc etc.

Bottom line is that he is hostile to what we do so lets hope he goes.

Speaking of poll data gathering. I just recently (last week) participated in one. Most of them are done via telephone. They asked me about 20 questions and the last one was "are you a democrate, republican, independant, or other party".
This polling company clearly stated that they were hired by ABC at the begining of the phone call.

No way I'd ever give any polling agency data like that on me.

Why not? most polls gather from like 2000 or so people. One persons data is fairly signifigant with those numbers. Hopefully the american sheep will follow along with what is popular.

Gimme a break - the US can't even "manage" Bush's war with one country, nevermind two or more.

You would turn a fellow pornographer in for such a thing because you disagree with their political beliefs? Discussing politics is one thing, turning on your brethren is another. We're all on the same side here. I'm disgusted that you would even joke about such a thing and if you are serious you're a really pathetic human being. Sad, Rich. No one should ever do business with you.

People who support John Asskroft are trying to put us all out of business, sometimes it's best to try to give blind fools the kind of government they think they want. Any Bush apologist is not my brethren, and is a disease on our industry. They may as well be the first people the fanatics put it jail, better him than a rational human being who cares about the future of our business.

but just cool the jets.

Their vote and support is aiding and abetting this government. Those who want this type of religious fundamentalist leadership should be the first to experience it.

I don't get it. You point out that anyone who supports John Ashhahahahaha is a disease on the industry and then readily admit you are willing to complain to the DOJ about someone in "retaliation". Someone like you is much worse than someone who would "vote Republican", you are actually willing to assist them. You are scum.

That's not the only thing you don't get.

They have no shortage of people to arrest, so I say put the apologists at the top of the list. They're already prosecuting what, 300 people for obscenity? If it takes jail time to wake up some of these hypocrites in our industry, well like I said it's better them than good people who care about our business. A supporter of this regime is no friend of mine and no friend of our industry.
