3. When the GOP can steal whole states by remote control
just by "flipping" a few votes on electronic voting machines in strategic precincts - damn right you should be worried.

I would like a total electoral blowout though, just for grins.

19. what? i seem to recall plenty of polls showing kerry ahead; dems were very confident that he was go
going to win (i wasn't, however, knowing how these things go); they were all jazzed about the enhusiasm, young/new voters, bush sucks so bad we can't lose, etc., etc. it's all very familiar.

24. This is 2008, not 2004. There is a difference in what is going on in the country now & then.
Bush vs. Kerry poll, same time 4 years ago, in 2004. A virtual tie between Bush and Kerry.


Opinion Dynamics Corporation (search) conducted the national registered voter poll for Fox News on June 8-9.

The national registered voter poll finds the Republican incumbent would receive the support of 43 percent to Kerry's 45 percent, if the presidential election were held today. When independent Ralph Nader (search ) is included, he receives three percent, Bush 42 percent and Kerry 42 percent.
........

President Bush's overall approval rating held steady in the new poll, with 48 percent approving and 45 percent disapproving of the job he's doing as president. While there is little difference between how men and women rate the president's job performance, Republicans are about four times as likely to approve as Democrats, and whites are more than twice as likely as blacks are to approve.

The poll finds optimism about the nation's economy and continued majority support for military action in Iraq. On the economy, today 53 percent believe it is recovering, up from 45 percent in late March. A 55 percent majority feels optimistic about the country's economy right now and 38 percent pessimistic, a sentiment that is essentially unchanged for over a year.

"A belief in a strong national economy is crucial to the reelection chances of an incumbent president, and this year is no exception," notes Opinion Dynamics Corporation Senior Account Executive Lawrence Shiman. "The increase in the percentage of the public saying the economy is improving is a positive development for the president."

There are clear differences between groups on the economic outlook. Republicans are far more optimistic about the economy — 78 percent to 40 percent of Democrats. In addition, men are slightly more optimistic than women (60 percent and 53 percent respectively).

On Iraq, 60 percent support the U.S. military having taken action to disarm Iraq and remove Saddam and 34 percent oppose. However, only 39 percent agree that the Iraq war will ultimately make the United States safer, while 46 percent disagree.

Similar to views on the economy, support for the war in Iraq is divided along party lines. Fully 89 percent of Republicans support the action compared to 40 percent of Democrats and 51 percent of independents.

30. 84% of the people in this country are not happy with the direction we are going
Obama leads in the polls by about 6% with the bump from being selected as the nominee.

Do not freak out. The numbers are meaningless until election night.
