The deceitful and moderated Kerry thread now may be going in an even worse direction. The very idea is stupid, but we see that partisans prefer propoganda to truth...

Thoughts for this thread:
1) This is the "John Kerry for President" thread.

2) We are now in the stretch run (100 days to go) with the DNC convention starting this week.

3) There are plenty of threads for the Bush supporters on SI.

I suggest that the Bush supporters post elsewhere. Further, I suggest that the moderator ban the Bush supporters so as not to clutter up this thread. Obviously this is not a "free speech" issue, since the moderator is not the government.

Hopefully the moderator will take my suggestion.

Kerry is doing better than those polls say. For one thing, whoever made that list picked the worst polls vis a vis Kerry. Fox News is a biased poll pro-Bush and always has been. The WSJ is also pro-Bush.

Take the top seven non-partisan polls and average them out and you have about a 3.5% lead for Kerry (very close but a lead), but more important when you poll swing-voters from battleground states Kerry goes ahead by %5 or more, and that's with Nader in the polls, and we don't know if Nader will even be on the ballot. Also it's without the Libertarian on the ballot and they tend to suck away Bush votes for all his big government spending.

This is election may be close, but advantage Kerry-Edwards. Another point Zogby brought up was that most undecideds will be breakintg for Kerry once they see him as an acceptable leader. And he is MORE than acceptable.
