The poll numbers after each debate have simply amazed me.
and that includes the VP debate.... These have been major slaughters against Bushco....

80-20 on an average from all the major polls. I get a kick from those who say it's little old DU and a couple of blogs doing it all... Nope.... Americans are pissed and they know con-men when they see them.

These polls should give us all a pretty nice size hint of how the elections going to go.

1. I agree.
I would think the election results will be similar to what these debate polls report. 80-20 is a bit of a stretch. 60-40 sounds about right to me.

2. Unscientific - but not quite worthless
Which side is more motivated, angry and vocal says something. It should have been that way in 2002.

4. I'd say they are a good indicator of our motivation
I'd say we are looking at a big win.

3. the skewed polls might be due to more dems having the ability
to use computers and the internet. a large portion of the shrub's base is in the midwest and the south... farms, small towns, sparse areas... places with little or no internet.

that's my theory, anyways.

7. 'Tis funny how freepers have one excuse after another!
After November 2, they'll be saying the same thing about these Skewed votes.

junior is a crook. And the folks in America have caught on to him.
