Likely Voter Sample Party IDs – Poll of September 24-26
Reflected Bush Winning by 52%-44%
Total Sample: 758
GOP: 328 (43%)
Dem: 236 (31%)
Ind: 189 (25%)
So based on only 758 voters, 12% more Republicans than Democrats (even though in the last 2 elections 5% more Democrats than Republicans voted), every major news organization today reported with a straight face that Bush has an 8 percent lead.
Well, if you poll 12% more Republicans than Democrats, Bush does have an 8 percent lead. But if you weight those votes properly, Kerry probably has the same lead!
Who is the SCLM will report this fact? None I fear.
P.S., to my reader, I hope to see a LETTER published in the Packet soon pointing out this outrageous distortion.

Twenty men were polled as to who they would like to make love to; their wife or Britney Spears. The poll numbers showed that Wives won the vote by a margin of 54% to 36% with 10% abstaining. The sample of voters breaks down as follows: Total Sample: 500
Married: 300
Single: 100
Clergy: 100
Ten percent never heard of either their wife or Britney Spears.
Now there's a poll to sink your teeth into!!
