[MadAsHellNewYorker]

1. They asked people at the end of the "Freedom Walk"

:puke:

[Parche]

21. New FOX poll

[Mass]

2. Gallup poll = BS.

How many Republicans in this poll? They are the laughingstock of the polling industry.

[Carla in Ca]

19. MediaMatters has the REAL story

n/t

[Timefortruth]

20. It's real, the blame the locals frame worked. nt

[Mr_Spock]

24. Not according to Post/ABC poll

You spoke 20 minutes too soon. 42% there but it's his lowest numbers ever in that poll - thru 9-12. 57% dissapprove!! Holy smoke!

[rzemanfl]

3. Gallup is always high by at least 5%. n/t

[Nikki Stone 1]

4. The attacks on Blanco are taking root

The anger of some people has been deflected.

[WCGreen]

5. That was my thinking......

[Nikki Stone 1]

7. They're beating up on a female while claiming they couldn't send troops

into LA because they'd be perceived as beating up on a female. (See the New York Times article from Sept 9, Political Issues Snarled Plans for Troop Aid.)

These guys are masters of the twisted message.

[Mr_Spock]

25. Not according to Post/ABC poll

42% is *'s lowest rating ever with 57%!! disapproval!!

[Bob3]

6. let me guess they polled only republicans

N/T

[jackbourassa]

8. Three worse polls are:

1) Gallup.

2) ABC/Washington Post

3) Rasmussen.

Those polls are always favoring Bush and GOP. No matter what.

[WCGreen]

10. Ras has been around 46% all week.....

[tritsofme]

17. Like when Gallup overshot Kerry's number last year

and predicted 49%/49% in the popular vote...

Or when Rasmussen got the popular vote pretty much exactly right....

That's really favoring Republicans....

[Mr_Spock]

27. Bush just got worst numbers ever through 9/12 on Post/ABC

42% approve with 57% dissaproval!!

He's toast - I don't care what the doubting thomases say!

[Totally Committed]

9. This is disgraceful, if true...

But, if it was manufactured, and part of a PR "lift" for Bush... CNN should be ashamed for running it.

This is such BULLSHIT!

11. Let me guess, Wolf Blitzer is telling the world this revelation! n/t

[flpoljunkie]

12. Is this overall job approval or Katrina handling approval?

[WCGreen]

13. Overall from what I gathered......

[sunnystarr]

14. If Karl hadn't been hospitalized last week

their last poll would have never seen the light of day. He's home now and got that fixed.

[flpoljunkie]

15. Interesting. On CNN website, it says his Katrina job approval is 43%.

They do not even mention his overall job approval in this article about the latest poll. It did report that 70% wanted independent investigation and that no one in the Gulf Coast affected by Katrina's devastation had been called for this poll. Interesting, Wolfie did not mention his Katrina approval.

Poll: Respondents dissatisfied with Katrina response

Monday, September 12, 2005; Posted: 4:54 p.m. EDT (20:54 GMT)

President Bush and Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Blanco leave the USS Iwo Jima to tour damaged areas Monday.

(CNN) -- A majority of Americans surveyed disapproved of President Bush's handling of Hurricane Katrina, a new CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll found.

In the survey, conducted September 8-11, 43 percent said they approved of Bush's handling of the crisis, while 54 percent said they disapproved.

<>Seventy percent of respondents said they favored forming an independent panel to study the government response to the storm.

The results were based on telephone interviews with 1,005 adults and had a margin of error of +/- 3 percent. Researchers did not try to call some areas of Mississippi and Louisiana that were declared federal disaster areas following the storm.

16. They probably added the three percent when they

reproted it to Wolf when I saw the original story....

[Timefortruth]

22. Karl was in the hospital?

Having his head removed from his asshole?

[sunnystarr]

28. I posted it

Don't pee your pants lol

[Mr_Spock]

30. Too bad kidney stones...

um, never mind :D

[Spazito]

18. No internals, no numbers showing the % of repubs polled versus

the # of dems and independents, as usual. Gallup is the horse's ass as far as polls go, imo.

[Lexingtonian]

23. weekend polling (like that) biases Republican

Weekend phone polling runs Republican numbers 10-15% higher than during midweek. Younger people and young families are out doing stuff. It's easy to see the 4-5 point bump in Rasmussen pollings.

Correcting for that, it would be a 40-42% outcome if taken midweek- well in line with all the other polling.

[yellowcanine]

26. Too soon for a "dead cat bounce" so it must just be a random fluctuation.

[patomime]

29. Watch the news agencies ....

they'll be back in the bed with their corporate buddies soon! Another "Rove Goes Wild" tactic. The USA today polls are notorious for banking republicans in their surveys.
