Proof that Zogby's state tracking polls are kind of shitty (so far).
Yesterday, Zogby had Kerry leading in CO 49-45.

Now, this story today -

Kerry turns attention from Colorado
Campaign scales back ads and cancels visit in order to boost efforts elsewhere

By Jim Tankersley, Rocky Mountain News
October 25, 2004

Sen. John Kerry has scaled back his television ads in Colorado this week and scrapped a planned campaign stop in Denver.

The Democratic presidential candidate will refocus his time and ad dollars on more hotly contested swing states such as Ohio and Florida, although campaign officials insist that they will continue to fight for Colorado.

2. internal polls
are always better. They not only ask the horse race question, but they map out what can move voters and how far the voters can move.

3. Well, i think another reason to pull out of CO is that
the Electoral College amendment looks like it's going to pass, so far as I saw this morning on CNN.
