With the amount Kerry has been spending on add's leading up to his convention they have to be concerned at the lack of positive movement. At least they should be IMO.

Those are all the most recent polls. Whenever new ones come out they are added to the list. Sine they average them the tally is about as accurate as you can get.

More polls will come out every week, but the trend is fairly strong for Kerry now, and since everyone already knows Bush, all Kerry needs to do is show himself as honest, smart, credible and acceptable and he should win. The Boston convention bump should be decent. But will Bush get any bump out of New York? Not much if 56% of Americans already feel we're on the wrong track.

Anyway, it will be fairly close and I expect Bushies to cheat and flip-flop, but I still wouldn't put any money on Bush. No president has ever been re-elected with 45% approval ratings. In fact, no one with under 51% has been re-elected.

BTW: See how Bush is flip-flopping away now trying to suddenly portray himself as a moderate after 3+ years of governing as a far righty?
