[QUOTE]Originally posted by TSN: [QB] <blockquote>"I think what he was trying to get at there was that neither Kerry nor Bush had a zinger, but that Bush still came out ahead with only a slightly diminished lead in the electoral vote. (A good site that updates daily, and run by a liberal, is Electoral Vote.)"</blockquote> I'm a big fan of electoral-vote.com, but bear in mind that it's just based on polls. Even the ones that are very obviously off. I mean, just look at the current projected final map. It's got Maryland, Delaware, and Rhode Island all going to Bush. Obviously, the numbers have to be taken with quite a few grains of salt, and maybe even some pepper. Not to mention that even poll numbers that seem to make sense are unreliable, too. After all, we already know that Gallup (self-admittedly) oversamples Republicans. And SurveyUSA has admitted that they do no weighting of parties in their results at all. So, basically, any polls or data based on polls need to be very carefully examined. Don't just accept the numbers printed in the newspaper. <blockquote>"...and Alan Colmes on Fox News."</blockquote> I'm not sure he helps your case. Alan Colmes is pretty much universally known to be a useless twat. [/QB][/QUOTE]
