Edwards has won every poll I've been into this am- including Fox and my
hometown newspaper - North Carolina - yippeeeeee!

I'm surprised not to see more jubilant posts here today. I sure am happy!

1. online polls, right?
The ABC News poll last night showed that Cheney won.

I hear that the CBS poll had undecided voters giving Edwards the edge, though.

4. The ABC poll, by Peter Jennings own admission
oversampled Republicans!

5. That's right...
I heard that they said when giving the results that it was based on those who watched the debate and that more of those were Republicans!

Which I find highly doubtful. Lots of Dems should have been interested in seeing Edwards, since I bet that a lot of them, like me, haven't gotten to see him speak very much.

That did strike me when they phrased the results that way.

6. CNN not showing poll reults - just announcers giving their opinions.

7. I voted in the CNN poll
And 15 minutes later I went back to see how it was going (because it had Edwards winning by 82% and I didn't think it could hold)) and the poll had been removed and replaced with one that asked if it helped you to make up your mind. Over 160,000 had voted when I did.

8. Why the hell...
Did polls support Edwards over Cheney far more than they did for Kerry over Bush? The first debate was a total pushover, for heaven's sake! The VP one was supposed to be tricky!

Yet, most polls I saw placed B/K both near 50%. While the VP polls gave Edwards mostly 85-90%...

Or did I just look at the wrong polls in the first one?

9. The B/K polls were mostly 75/25 or so in favor of Kerry.
I don't know why the C/E polls reflect these numbers, but I'm happy about it...

10. It is amazing after all of our hard work
to see the tide turning, at last.
