WASHINGTON (CNN) -- There is no significant change in today's CNN/USA Today/Gallup tracking poll, which gives George W. Bush a 49 percent-42 percent advantage over Al Gore. The survey of 678 likely voters was conducted October 23-25 and has a four-point margin of error.

9. cable news will ignore this one.

they'll mention it once and never again.

11. The campaign..................

is about to take a wicked turn. You can expect Bush/Cheney to pull out all the stops on their "Tout Terror Tour" from now until next Tuesday. Every vile, evil, disgusting lie they can dream up will come spewing from their mouths now. It's going to get nasty, real nasty.

About this time four years ago...

http://edition.cnn.com/2000/ALLPOLITICS/stories/10/27/tracking.poll/

Today's CNN/USA Today/Gallup tracking poll continues to give George W. Bush an advantage over Vice President Al Gore.

While not a prediction of the voters' choice in November, Friday's results show Bush garnering 52 percent of the vote and Gore drawing 39 percent. The survey of 851 likely voters was conducted October 24-26 and has a 3.5 percentage point margin of error.

...

ABC News and The Washington Post both have daily tracking polls today putting the race at 48 percent for Bush and 45 percent for Gore.

14. Hold on!!

Don't forget that Kerry is behind in Iowa & Wisconsin, Jeb and company will do whatever it takes for the chimp to take Florida.

15. If Kerry Wins By Two Percent The Chances Of Him Losing The E C Are Remote

18. Uh Huh

Kerry is behind in some polls, ahead in others...Pfffft! The ONLY way Chimpy wins now is through blatant cheating, which is not out of the question, but I trust Kerry to NOT let him get away with it...Kerry's a fighter and a man who has looked death in the face, unlike the cowardly chimp...

[Awsi Dooger]

16. If Kerry can net +1% between now and election day, nearly a cinch

Today I ran dozens of scenarios. When I project an additional 1% to Kerry in my Excel models, his likelihood of success jumps from 55% to above 80%.

Unless the undecideds break even or inexpicably toward the incumbent. Not going to happen.

[EarlG]

20. I don't have a link right now, but...

USA Today ran a piece today on the Gallup numbers, and included this little-publicized stat:

Likely voters who cast a ballot in 2000 lean toward Bush, 50%-46%, according to USA TODAY/CNN/Gallup surveys during the past four months.

But likely voters who didn't go to the polls four years ago are overwhelmingly for Kerry, 59%-40%.

19. woohoo!

I think we're making a break.


I hope Zogby shows this trend tomorrow.
