These polls are insane!

[agcatter]

Gallup has Kerry up 55 - 43.

Over the same time Rassmussen has Bush up 48 - 43 with a surge over the last couple of days.

Zogby's poll has Kerry ahead in the blue states by only 1, and Bush up comfortably in the red states 51 - 39. (this done 12th - 16th)

What the hell is going on here?  It is either:
1) a conspiracy to drive us political junkies cukoo
2) one or all of these polls are garbage
3) we have entered some political campaign twighlight zone.
4) all of the above.

Sheesh!

It's mathematically impossible.  Maybe the polls were taken in two different countries.  Or two different worlds in a parallel universe.

Yeah, one of these polls has a bad sample, which one I have no clue.  I know polls are fluid this time of year, but fluid means fluid over time not poll to poll taken at the same time.  

These polls are supposed to to be within the margin of error 95% of the time.  Guess one of these must have been the one out of twenty times when they came up with a stinker.  Just plain weird.

[agcatter]

Maybe they want us to add each candidates' percentage in the two polls and divide by two.  It's Gallup's idea of giving us all a math problem for homework.

works for me

Guess we deserve all this confusion.  It's our punishment for following these things nine months out.

[agcatter]

Yeah, scary stuff.

I'm getting poll fatigue and it's only Feb.  This addiction to politics is taking its toll on me.  I need to check into a rehab clinic.  Someone help me!
