Thanks for the reply. My mistake. Just saw the poll results on the CNN ticker this evening - I think it was a CNN poll - and figured all the major polls would be close... within a point or two.

Aren't the major polls conducted by statistics eggheads who spend enormous amounts of time and energy trying to achieve a low margin of error, like two or three points? Then one gives Bush a 3 point lead while another has Kerry leading by 8?

Oh, well... the only one that counts is the one on election day... usually.

Latest polls have Kerry leading by 8% and 6% also. You used the word "polls" then only cited one poll, the one you picked...
