Kerry AND Edwards leads Bush in double digits! New USA Today/Gallup poll

[wyldwolf]

sorry it a dupe!


Democrat John Kerry holds his largest lead yet over President Bush in a head-to-head match-up among likely voters, a new USA TODAY/CNN/Gallup poll concludes, and rival John Edwards also holds a double-digit lead over the president.

The poll, taken Feb. 16-17, indicates that if the election were held today, Kerry would be chosen by 55% of likely voters, compared to 43% for Bush. In the last polling, Feb. 6-8, Bush held a 49-48 advantage.

Edwards, Kerry's sole remaining major rival for the Democratic nomination, holds a 54%-44% advantage, the poll indicates. The question has a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.

6. I have heard Ed Gillespie spinning, spinning, spinning

the chimps drop in the polls. He is not surprised "He knew this is where they would be". He is such a schmuck. I don't think they expected this with the war and the tax cuts!

For all of you old Dead Heads out there...Remember the "spinners" at the shows?

7. I can see Kerry, especially, ending up with a 20 pt. or more lead

against that warmongering moron. :bounce::D:bounce:

8. Have there ever been TWO candidates beating an incumbent President...

...at this point in an election year?

Two candidates outside the margin of error is huge!

10. Thanks for posting this, as you are Kerry supporter

and alot of them wouldn't want to talk about this.

I think Edwards is likely to be eaten away at over 8 months if one of them gets the nom, and I think no matter what he has the electoral college advantage, being the senior senator from a state Bush sort of needs alone
