Reps Cut Dhimmi Lead in Campaign's Final Days
2006-11-06
Latest Pew poll. It's now 43-47 among likely voters, from 39-50 in mid-October. All the details are at the link.

This is a hard swerve in the last few days, and the Reps can thank, in part, John Kerry for it, just as the Dhimmis had Mark Foley to thank for their earlier bulge.

If you haven't yet voted early, get out tomorrow and vote. Vote.

#12  Some of the rural western Washington shrillness I have heard in the last week or so centers around the theme of "Vote the party, toss the Trunks." Silly me, I thouhgt that you wanted the best person to win, regardless of party affiliation. Oh yeah, that's why our primary that worked so well for all these years got tossed to mirror one from the Granola State.

#11  We can hope that the gen-y slackers that so often show up at these protest rallys are too busy smoking some doob to bother to vote.

"It's, like, in the bag man. *toke*"

#9  I know why I am going to vote tomorrow, but can anyone give me one reason why any donks would vote tomorrow?

Out of hatred and spite, pure and simple. Donks have long since stopped caring aobut what is good, right and proper, devolving into a quagmire of hatred, bitterness and animosity. It's the antithesis of patriotism, exercised, ironically, under the guise of "saving the country". And it's a helluva lot less painful than self examination, and the admission that they are a dead party with long discredited ideas.

Don't underestimate the power of hate.

Hmmmm....for their 'Precious' that they think the thieving dirty Trunks stole from them?

Power for the sake of power.

#6  ... I have noticed over the last week or so an increasingly shrill insistence that the Republican's doom is nigh...that more than anything else has convicned me that the results are not going to be what the MSM and the Donks would like us to think.

#5  Karl Rove's streak is more impressive than the polsters.

#4  I'm going to go out on a limb here and say the polls are *bleep*ed. After the last presidential election, I saw a map that showed by-county election results. Except for the major cities and some coastal regions in blue, the entire country was a sea of red. IMHO, the pollsters are suffering from sampling bias because a) they never get out to fly-over land and b) it fits The Narrative of a failed Bushitler regime.

#3  The "tightening" is more likely a hedging of pollsters bets, tweaking the weighting within the polling. Projecting a wave and getting a ripple wouldn't put them in good light for future elections.

Manipulation is the only way they retain legitimacy.
