CNN poll: Bush maintains 7-point lead over Gore. Gallup way wrong again.

[Zorra]

As I recall, Al Gore won the election by 500,000 or so votes. Gallup is owned by a republican donor. Do you think he is trying to influence the election, or are his polling methods just totally bogus?

WASHINGTON (CNN) - GOP presidential candidate Texas Gov. George W. Bush continued to maintain an advantage over Democratic Vice President Al Gore in Sunday's CNN/USA Today/Gallup tracking poll.

Forty-nine percent of respondents said they supported Bush while 42 percent said they would vote for Gore, no change at all from Saturday's poll.

1. Which reminds me

has anyone gone back and looked at the political affiliation ratios in all those Bush popularity polls? Remember when he had record high job numbers but you couldn't find anyone who could say anything nice about him or the job he was doing? I want a recount!
