I dunno. People are idiots and I don't understand em. That's why I contend that the polls are garbage and I refuse to even try to predict a winner.
In this country, we'd rather see a fight over who really won than a clear-cut winner, anyway. It's a hell of a lot more interesting, no matter who 'lost', it' still arguable years later, and we know that they're both incompetent anyway.
Hmm, maybe I do understand more than I thought...

I guess the voters in '92 looked into the future using the technology from the Roswell aliens to figure that out before electing Clinton.

Those polls aren't representative of likely voters. Again just further proof how the major media conglomerates are trying to push a political candidate. I've said previously that the liberal democrats are going to try and push the economy as the main issue, you realize that anyone can create a poll that will give them the results they want right?

You'd think there's be ONE that showed something other than the economy as the primary issue then.

I think that almost all of them do. If the GOP believes that Iraq was a part of the war on terrorism I will agree with them. I spent 341 days in Iraq and my unit is about to go to Afghanistan in first quarter 2005. If you had listened to any of the primetime speakers from the first night you would agree.
That was hilarious, he put up ten polls then got the flippant response, "Those polls aren't representative of likely voters."
I'm pretty sure they polled people, and I'm pretty sure people are likely voters, saving any drastic amendments to the constitution that allow door hinges, rocks, and ice cream sundaes to vote.
Anyway...
Let's not forget the signifigant personal experience where he used luck, plcuk, virtue, and M&M's to overcome adveristy.

Also if they tell you that killing Arabs makes you strong like Popeye, I imagine.

Agree that you spent time in Iraq?

So basically what you guys are saying is that if Kerry wins it'll be because of the economy? Is that a fair assessment? What i'm saying is that regardless of what the major media conglomerates say the election is a referendum on the war on terror. If Bush wins it will be because people feel safer with him as president. If Bush loses then it will mean that Kerry and the major rags were right in saying the economy was of the most interest.

The Republicans Have the balls to go around and Politicize A National Tragidy.
Excuse me but Anyone who would base thier Convention around the Death of 3,000 Americans NEEDS to be kicked out of office.
I Am going to be sick.
That's right, I forgot that Al Gore was definitely my leader of choice at the time...

Besides, when Michael Moore was sitting in the presidential box at the DNC.... Look, all you jackasses believing that 9-11 is politicized are just waiting for the RNC to come out of the woodwork. What the hell do expect anyone heading the executive branch to do? That's like saying Roosevelt might have beena good president despite that whole World War 2 thing.... Get a clue man!
One more thing, I distinctly remember seeing family members and wives of people who were involved in the incidents that day THANKING the GOP for the opportunity to speak on the events that changed their lives (and many of ours.) Now, in my objective rationale, I think NOONE has more of a right to speak about the incidents of that day than someone who lost a loved one in the horrific events. Is it politicized? Maybe, but when people are free to speak their minds about something that affected them then they are merely exercisizing their freedom of speech. I'm sorry if 9-11 didnt convey some glorious rite of passage for the Democratic party but that doesnt mean that we have to put it in a box and forget about it when it comes to electing an Executive policy-maker.

Wouldn't the results be very different? If "Cake and Icecream" together got 40% of the total in the first poll, then the category of "Candy bars" would logically get 60% of the total in the second
Yeah. I goofed on that one. I realized the mistake sometime early this morning while trying to get to sleep (I was at work *very* late last night and wrote that at like 3:30AM). I didn't think it mattered that much to bother to change it.
Change M&Ms to Mars bars if it makes you feel more comfortable with the analogy...

Xythex. While I'm certain that the polls are accurate, I'll still repeat what I said earlier. In every poll, they presented the pollers with two choices (at least): "war in Iraq", and "war against terror" (with some having "foreign relations/policy" and/or "military/defense" in there as well).
If those same polls were conducted with the same people in exactly the same way, with the only change being that they replaced all choices involving foreign affairs with "war on terror", I can absolutely guarantee you that it would place higher then the single category of "economy".
In the same vein, if you presented pollers with the following choices: "unemployment", "tax rates", and "cost of living", no single one of those would come close to the numbers for "economy" alone.
Given that the poll analysis that Smash posted made a point of mentioning that there was a split between Dems and Reps as to whether they think that the war on terror and the war in Iraq are separate or related issues, the fact that they are split into separate issues in every single poll you posted does kinda tell you something don't you think?
