MSNBC Poll: Kerry/Edwards Leads Bush/Cheney 54 to 43

[WillyBrandt]

If you put Nader in there, it is 49 to 41. But I think the non-Nader poll is the one that really matters.

"According to the poll, which was conducted by Princeton Survey Research Associates International, a Kerry-Edwards ticket gets support from 49 percent of registered voters, while President Bush and Vice President Cheney get 41 percent, and independent Ralph Nader and running mate Peter Camejo get 4 percent. In a two-way race, Kerry-Edwards leads Bush-Cheney, 54 percent to 43 percent."

1. sweet, nice bounce

:bounce:

[Arugula Latte]

2. Bee-yoo-tee-full

Now watch for the next RNC talking point: "Hey, it wasn't a 15-point bounce like we predicted!"

9. July is far from over

We'll have the predicted bounce after the convention.

17. ever notice

how they trot out Matthew Dowd to lower expectations?

I thought the Bush administration didn't listen to pollsters!

3. Good, but we can do better, this isn't good enuff yet, we need a 20 point

lead to beat him.

[CompassionateLiberal]

4. Kerry will need at least a 12pt lead by Nov.

With a 12+ pt lead in the polls come Nov., Kerry might actually end up winning by 1-2 pts after all the GOP's illegal election tricks.

[Skarbrowe]

16. That's how I feel.

Kerry/Edwards need a good 15 to 20 point lead to make it look pretty damn stupid for Bush/Cheney to actually win it. Republicans closed a 9 to 14 point lead by Democrats in Georgia with all Diebold machines.

The main thing I am hoping for is that the presidency is NOT called the night of the election. I think we need a few days to check out voting irregularities and provisional votes. Now, if Kerry/Edwards WIN by or 50 to 47,and obviously the electoral vote, then we won't need to do that. Because we will know that it is probably more like 54 to 43, but long as it's K/E win, we can check out all the vote stealing after the election has been called for them. :)

Uh oh.... could be time for some homeland mischief.... perhaps raise the threat level... set off a little explosion somewhere.... who know what they may consider... I know what they considered in days gone by...

>>The Northwoods plan for staging phony attacks on the U.S. to justify invading Cuba was developed by the Joint Chiefs of Staff in 1962. It was never implemented, perhaps due to fear of Soviet retaliation.

The Northwoods document was obtained by the National Security Archive:

"an independent non-governmental research institute and library located at The George Washington University in Washington, D.C. The Archive collects and publishes declassified documents acquired through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). A tax-exempt public charity, the Archive receives no U.S. government funding; its budget is supported by publication royalties and donations from foundations and individuals."<<


Is it soup yet??

11. I believe there was some kind of briefing today

regarding increased "chatter" around the conventions and possibly the election. They're cheneyed either way. If there is an "event anytime before the election, the scales will fall off the rest of the sheeples eyes and they will realise that the the chimperor can not protect the masses either.

6. Snap Shot Poll

Was rather remarkable in the NBC/Wall Street Journal Poll. Even the question they asked who would be more qualified to be President, John Edwards beat Cheney by 5 plus points. Now folks that is something. Oh and by the way, the 15 point bounce was not Kerry announcing his VP choice but from the convention... So please if a Freeper says well you all did not get the 15 pt bounce tell em hey we will get that after our convention... We are looking good people, and in 92 when Clinton announced Gore he got a bounce and he got a bigger bounce after the convention and never trailed Bush the Smarter again, and I see this happening with Kerry/Edwards.....

8. To bad they arent being held today...

Oh im so nervous about the coming up months... I pray americans WAKE UP! but I am LOVING these numbers!

[RummyTheDummy]

10. I usually don't put much stock in internet quickie polls

However, Kerry has been trouncing Bush in most of these I've seen in the last two months. At some point one has to wonder if they could be illustrating a trend, at the very least.

[Ilsa]

12. Bush team will claim they have the victory,

because according to them, Kerry should get a 15 point boost from his announcement, and it he doesn't have it, Bush will win.

Or some other absurd logic.

Stupid Cheney-ups are going down!

13. Great news, n/t

[AndyTiedye]

14. How Much is Edwards and How Much is F/911?

These are also the first nationwide polls we've seen since F/911 came out.
Last week's polls were all sampled before 23 June.
