polls.....memory erased from last night
Most of the polls around the country continue to show Kerry the clear winner.

But 3 polls (CNN, MSNBC, Fox), and maybe more have been reposted, and the Repugs have been busy attacking the new polls, so that Bush has gone ahead in these 3.

Apparently, the right wingers are more likely to be at home and doing online polls on Saturday morning and afternoon, whereas the rest of us assumed that the polling was more or less finished by now.

So which polls to believe?  The ones that have been set up on Saturday, or the continuous polls that have been running consistently since the end of the  debates?

Why do CNN, Fox, and MSNBC all post new polls on Saturday, tearing down the polls that were already done last night and not mentioning Kerry won those handily?

The bottom line is that we must vote on the new polls, because our votes earlier are no longer counted, at least on these 3 websites.

3. Precisely...............
since we voted mostly on Friday night, those polls were "skewed". I defy anyone to explain the logic of that.

We still all voted once, what time we voted should make abslutely no difference. Will they do this November 2 as well? If we all vote early and Kerry wins will they want a "do over"?

The Corporate Media will do whatever it takes to prop their boy up. They don't want to lose those fat tax breaks you know.

2. " So which polls to believe?".....None of them matter
What really matters are the countless millions that have been watching the actual debates. I know there is a chance that these 3 repuke channels might try to use these numbers to start a new meme but average everday people aren't stupid. They know what they watched.
