3. It was a holiday weekend
More people out of town=lower response rates=more phone calls=higher costs for the polling companies.

I wouldn't hold your breath though. These attacks in London are going to turn some of the American people into little children who come running back to Bush like he's their Mommy. I bet the next poll takes him up to 50% again.

6. Bush needs 10 terror attacks to get back to 70% approval.
Edited on Sun Jul-10-05 11:04 PM by TruthIsAll
Figure 3% per attack.
