Zogby will have a poll tommorow that shows the national race tied at 45.

He was on POTUS XM today and announced this.

I know you guys were just wetting yourselves in anticipation.. Smiley

Just look forward to the media narrative tomorrow about the "Palin bounce".

I think Zogby constructs his polls to do sh**t like this.

You take that and the one poll showing McCain up in MN and the one showing him up in VA and you have enough for a 'we have turned this thing around' talking point from the campaign.

"three new polls show that America is ignoring the media filter and responding to the leadership of John McCain and Sarah Palin"

"constructs"

That is the kindest possible word to discribe Mr. Zogby's methods. Smiley

Zogby or Zogby Interactive, deceptively taken after the Republican convention but released a month later with really fine print so few figure it out while Zogby gets his name in the news? 

Either way, Zogby's poll is crap.  But a Zobgy Interactive poll is crappier crap.

It's Zogby!

Look, Zogby is bad that it's meaningless.

I could have sworn he said 45-45 on POTUS XM. Maybe he gained some sense over night.

Zogby may well have and then changed his mind.

You have to remember, this is the man who is 2004 released a bunch of new "polls" at about 5.00 pm on Election day that he proported to be new telephone results but that were actually based on what turned out to be some really badly flawed exit polls - Even by Zogby standards he was covered in, un, ah, well egg on the face....

I haven't listened to Zogby since 2004. On Election Day, he indicated exit polls had Kerry winning VA, CO, NV, NM and FL.

Rasmussen and Gallup are the definitive polling sources.
