Gallup Sees Same Slide

The USA Today/Gallup poll just out gives the Reps a perfect trifecta in the polls as, again, a huge lead is cut. Today the Dems only enjoy a meager 7 percentage point lead over the Reps. A month ago it was a 23 point lead, and two weeks ago it was 13 points. Updating this […]

Steele Will Win, Can Kean?

Another poll out shows why I think the Dems are in for a schocker on Tuesday. Trend lines are the key. Is the arrrow pointing up, pointing down (and most critically how steeply is it pointing) or flat. We have seen the trend line for Steele, and I am confident black democrats are not being […]

Pundits Resist Honest Turnout Models

Stuart Rothenburg is one of those political pundits who has bet the house (his reputation) on the accuracy of the polls – at least until this weekend. Newsbusters has an interesting comment by Rothenburg this morning on CBS Face The Nation: There was a recent poll out just today that suggested the Republicans were closing, […]

Democrats Still Hemoraging In Polls

Jim Geraghty at TKS has the news about the latest Pew Poll and another indication of ‘a shift’ from the Dems to the Reps (via Hotline): Pew is out with their final pre-election poll and just like the ABC/Wash. Post poll, Pew shows Republicans with momentum. In the generic ballot, Dems lead by just 4 […]

1-2 Seat Senate Loss

I just wanted to crow a little bit before the Dallas-Redskins game starts and remind people that I predicted maximum of a 1-2 seat Senate loss for the Reps last week. I do not plan right now on changing that prediction. And I seriously doubt Allen is in trouble in VA. Recall, Bush was suppose […]

Liberals Unhinged As Polls Head Right

Boy, I thought the liberals were in deep emtional trouble over 2004 and their fantasy that polls were more accurate than ballots. Now the liberals, seeing their hopes dashed, are claiming the polls are no good. As Corker takes a lead in some polls (and you all know I am not very condifdent in the […]

Steele For President

Micheal Steele just told Chris Wallace that the Washington Post will have to write the headline “Steele Wins” and just ‘eat it’! Man, Steele is my kind of politician. Mark me down as one of the first to call for Steele For President. And let the antique media just Eat It!

Two More Interesting Polls

Mason Dixon has a poll out showing RI Senator Chaffee up by 1% and MD Senate candidate Cardin in a statistical tie over Steele. Amazing turn arounds. The Chafee numbers are really something given other polls showed Chaffee down by 10-14%. The previous Mason Dixon poll in RI showed Chafee down by 5%. I am […]

The Poll Question Of 2006

Update: Zogby has a poll out for FL-22 which makes the race there look like a Dem pick up. I don’t buy the wave thing automatically, but I would believe Kerry leaning districts dumping GOP incumbents (which is the case in all those really tough races). RCP shows this is one of those districts. end […]

Delaware County, PA [H/T Crosspatch for the correction] is being inundated with fake voter registrations from the ACORN leftwing group. Seems Dems are trying to fake some elections here.
