Re: I thought they had him ahead by 13 but that could have simply been the poll the last week of October 2000.

I couldn't find the Gallup polls for 2000 to compare. I similarly recall that they had the silly 13% figure on one occasion.

Re: There's still something wrong when the exit polls and the actual count differ so badly. It's amazing that Americans don't care more about their votes not counting.

The prozac is working, eh?

Talk about a nation of sleep-walking zombies, this just in from the notoriously evangelical Gallup family:

Third of Americans Say Evidence Has Supported Darwin's Evolution Theory

Almost half of Americans believe God created humans 10,000 years ago

by Frank Newport

Only about a third of Americans believe that Charles Darwin's theory of evolution is a scientific theory that has been well supported by the evidence, while just as many say that it is just one of many theories and has not been supported by the evidence. The rest say they don't know enough to say. Forty-five percent of Americans also believe that God created human beings pretty much in their present form about 10,000 years ago. A third of Americans are biblical literalists who believe that the Bible is the actual word of God and is to be taken literally, word for word.

Mon Dieu, quelle horreur!
