I hate to drag this blog back into the political mudscape again, but I was reading an article on Ted "Donate-a-Billion-tothe-UN" Turner's http://www.cnn.com/ website, or as i like to call it "hatebush.com". CNN is considered by many to be the world's leading news source. Now, for months I've been unmoved by all the propaganda showing Kerry well ahead, beloved by the American people, and the inevitable winner in November. John and I have publicly expressed our doubt, and in the face of ridicule have both chosen to predict Bush to be reelelected in November. This ridicule comes based on the mass media's coverage of the race, which like John Kerry is vague and duplicitous. I'm going to paste an excerpt from todays's article, and after reading it I think you will agree. (CNN) -- The race between President Bush and Sen. John Kerry is as close as it has ever been, even after the Democratic National Convention last week, according to a CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll released Sunday.
The poll -- conducted Friday and Saturday, after Kerry's acceptance of the Democratic nomination Thursday night -- found the senator from Massachusetts running slightly ahead of Bush among registered voters but slightly behind among likely voters.
Although the poll brought some good news for Kerry (it did?), it suggested that the convention helped mobilize voters on the opposite side as well.
Of the 1,011 adult Americans interviewed, 916 identified themselves as registered voters and 763 said they were likely voters.
The registered voters surveyed favored Kerry over Bush 50-47, a slight change from 49-45 found in a similar poll conducted two weeks ago.
The likely voters polled favored Bush 50-47, whereas two weeks earlier they had favored Kerry 49-47. So allow me to clarify, a registered voter who does not vote is a non-voter. By this logic, Kerry is leading this presidential race.......amongst non-voters. Congratulations to him, I'm sure hes also way ahead amongst deceased voters and house-pets.
