1. WHoa! Isn't SurveryUsa one of the dubious Republican outfits?

[tritsofme]

2. They get slammed around here a lot

But they have been a pretty reliable pollster for quite a while.

[Trajan]

5. Reliable ? ....

How so ? ...

They had Dan Lungren even with Gray Davis during the 1998 California Gubernatorial campaign, yet Davis won by double digits ....

I would like to see evidence that SurveyUSA provides 'reliable' polls ....

[tritsofme]

8. They did very well in 2002

Much better than Zogby Interactive that is so vaunted around here.

[lancdem]

9. Did Zogby have interactive polls in 2002?

I thought they were new this year.

12. What's going on in FL? SurveyUSA is supposed to be non-partisan...

Can anyone explain why Bush is up so much in FL?

[lancdem]

13. I wonder what effect the hurricane is having on polls there

if any.

[Warren DeMontague]

14. They cant poll for poop in California, that's for sure.

Several weeks ago they had people going bat-shit crazy in here because they had Bush only down by 3% in CA.

[Trajan]

3. IF its SurveyUSA ...

You can add 5% points to the Democrat ...

[deadparrot]

4. Don't pay attention to polls. Keep fighting.

[doni_georgia]

6. Look at trends is all - Kerry is in an up trend.

I have been saying all along that I don't think it is possible to get accurate polls in this race. I think we are in good shape.

7. no matter who wins the nc senate race, the democratic party loses

[Arugula Latte]

10. How so?

You don't like Bowles? (I don't know much about him.) :shrug:

[DaveinMD]

11. that's a bunch of hooey

a Bowles win is good for all of us. It will help us win back the Senate and help President Kerry enact his agenda.
