Hahahaha…I’ll forward your post to one of my best friends. He’s flying
an A-10 in Iraq. Second time he has done so. He’s pretty proud of it.
Know what an A-10 does. It fly’s low and slow over the battlefield and shoots at tanks with it’s main gun. The pilots call it “plinking tanks”.
Sounds honorable to me?

You are partly correct, as of today Bush is up 2% if you average all of the polls.
You are incorrect regarding the female vote.
Have fun at the rally![/quote]
I did, thanks – it was great fun to see the support that’s down here and it’s great to hear the spirit in people’s voices.
You’ll accept the poll that favors what you’ve to say, but decline to accept the poll that doesn’t, even though it was reported at the same time? You’re a funny one ZEB.

No, not at all – cute joke though.
You know what IS an oxymoron? Calling this the home of the free and standing behind the first ammendment while declining detractors entrance to your rallies…kind of like Bush does. We didn’t see that today. What’s more, we didn’t have to sign our lives away declaring allegiance to Kerry nor the party.
The few Bushies that were around were largely ignored by a confident bunch of democrats.

Sounds WAY COOL, DUDE! Do they sell these A-10s at the gun shows you go to, hedo? No, well shit, at least there’s hope with Bush in office.
Hedo, are you trying to compare serving in Iraq with chasing skirts in Texas?
Hahahahaha. Wake up man! It was a different era. Duh.
If the Margin of Error in a poll is 4 points, then that means PLUS or MINUS 4 points in either direction.
Translation: unless a candidate leads by 8 or more, (when the margin of error is 4) then the race is too close to call.
I hate to bother you Bushies with the facts, though, I know how annoying they are to your world view.

I figured out why you can do so many pullups. It’s because on Planet Bush, there is no gravity.

It is a common pracice. You simply take the latest polls performed by the various credible pollsters: Rasmusen, Zogby, Gallup and many others. You then average (as they oftern conflict) them to get a number.
No on stated that you take old polls and average them…Do you understand?
CNN posted the average of many polls today, and they had Bush up 2%. However, someone made a great point – this has become less of a national election and more of a state by state election. It will come down to the states everyone’s been talking about and the states the candidates have been frequenting: Ohio (Kerry up), Pennsylvania (Kerry up), and Florida (tie).
I’m off to a Kerry rally in Boca to break the tie!
(BTW, ZEB, Kerry’s up over Bush among women: 51% to 43%)[/quote]
so if bush wins the popular vote, but loses the election, are we gonna hear the same whining from you guys that we did in 2000? i won’t complain if this happens, just wondering if you guys will bemoan the electoral system in that situation as well

Uh, no. you don’t even understand your math. He needs to be 5 points ahead to guarantee he is ahead. Like you said it is plus or minus. Those numbers don’t jump magically from one side to the other.
But it is correct that the numbers have a range of 8 points. But that means that if Bush has a 4 point lead, then he falls into the range of even (minus 4) to ahead by 8 (plus 4).
It is best to look at polls that are +/- 3 points or less. Unfortunately that is not possible when looking at the electoral college polls. It is much easier to find enough people to constitute a 3% poll in a nationwide poll then to find that many in a state poll.
Now if you really want to look smart, take two polls that disagree with each other, figure the range for each, and if they overlap, then that overlap is a more accurate range. If they don’t, throw out the smaller sample because it is more likely to be flawed.
Vroom,You don’t get it dude. Never will. Be careful of the US will send you a bill for helping to defend Canada too.
RSU no A-10’s at the gun show…or liberals.
RSU:
Gee…I’m sorry if I only accept the truth and not your version of the truth.
So…John Kerry walks into a bar, and the bartender says, “Hey buddy, why the long face?”

Hey man…SOMEONE has to lighten it up around here once in a while 
RSU, your last post was a gem!!!
“The few Bushies that were around were largely ignored by a confident bunch of democrats.”
The party of 10,000 lawyers per election, coke for votes, declare intimidation before it occurs, RECOUNT, Re-vote, taddevine, terrymcaullife, was acting mature and confident.
That was wonderful, RSU, thanks for the humor!!!

I was talking about a particular rally I was at…were you there? If not, shut it.
Yeah, you wouldn’t believe how many enemies Canada has. You know, obviously, we’re out there selling guns, installing dictators and otherwise stirring up enmity while remaining totally oblivious to the consequences.
Anyway, come back when you grow up and get past the “my dad can beat up your dad” mentality.
Vroom
You are funny…
Canada making the world safe for democracy. Please.

You forgot to mention that Canada harbors terrorists, and gives them safe passage to the U.S.
Oh yeah - how many of our war deserters live up there - raising a new generation of pacifist?
Kerry IS in trouble.
He’s out there making FALSE attacks on Bush about a weapons cache that wasn’t covered by our troops. The Democratic leaning electoral vote projections has Bush in a clear lead… Bush 284; Kerry 247 (the Republican leaning one has Bush 296; Kerry 242).
Iowa Markets in the graph shown…
Tradesports.com has Bush in a clear lead…
Realclearpolitics.com averages all polls and has Bush with a very nice lead.
Let’s see, how many other things can we come up with that will inevitably lead to a Bush win?
