Bush builds upon his huge lead in West Virginia while Tennessee continues to be a squeaker.

Bush has lost 8% in Ohio, while Kerry continues to expand his lead in Wisconsin..

Kerry's 10% lead in MInnesota is about 9-12% different than Gallup and Mason Dixon and Rasmussen and Research 2000, but I assume it is correct.

Yes, a new shipment of tiolet paper is in!!

Well, this gives the Dems something to be hopeful about.  I'm sure that, while Gallup, a long trusted poll has "fallen to sh**t", Zogby is the Dems new best friend.

Thank you, Vorlon.  I'm sick as a dog right now and pushing up against a deadline at work - so I can't take any sick time.  They say laughter is the best medicine, you provided me with about five good minutes.

Makes a fool out of himself on a regular basis. Other than that, he's about the same.

He uses Internet polling.  His respondents are not randomly selected, are not proven to be living where they say they are,  may not be old enough to vote, let alone registered to vote and he barely checks to see if his respondents are telling the truth.

I live in Canada and voted 6 times in Ohio.

I think this indicate some issues with his poll.

I think that maybe Zogby is just making a fool of himself this year.  In 2000, I took him as a credible source, especially since the WSJ used him as "their" pollster.  Now his results are so far out of whack that they're laughable.  If Bush is seriously faring that poorly in Minnesota, New Mexico, and Oregon, then something has radically shifted in the last few hours.

...and there's no way that Bush is up by 12+ in West Virginia.  Sorry, fellow Repubs, it's just not right.

Zogby didn't use internet polling four years ago, did he?

No internet is new for Zogby polls.

Zogby didn't use the internet in his state polls four years ago.

However, they were just as innaccurate as they are today. (California within 1 point of Bush, Gore winning Florida by 10+, etc. etc.)

The only number I ever trust Zogby for is his overall horse race number, and if he gets that wrong this year, he should be as maligned as Rasmussen is now.

I really, really hope Zogby gets it spot on this- just to see how everyone reacts. Your all being childish about this pollster. Accurate or not, the comments made are pretty low.
