I know many are not fond of Zogby but here it is:

Quote from article:
| Quote: | Pollster John Zogby: “The Kerry fizzle is striking. He receives only 77% support from Democratic Party voters and has a 7-point lead in the blue states (47%-40%), as compared to Bush’s 13-point lead in the red states (51%-38%). The fact that Bush is getting 15% of Democrats and 15% of liberals should be troublesome. Bush leads again among Catholics (48%-40%) whereas Kerry had a double-digit lead among them in August. The fact that 10% of African Americans say that they are ‘not sure’ is dangerous for Kerry.

Zogby is basically an idiot. He sits there holed up in a dark little cave in Utica, NY and claims to have his finger on the pulse of America.
Ever been to Utica? I grew up in a town right next to it. Utica is a backwoods little nothing full of rednecks. I wouldn't be surprised if you couldn't find a few Hatfield and McKoys in them thar hills... |

| Be careful. Hatfield and McCoys are Red State kind of people. It does seem to me that Zogby polls for Dems. But there's one key in the poll. People change opinion before they change votes. Even Zogby is acknowledging that Kerry's base is eroding rapidly. In all polls there is huge increase towards Bush and against Kerry in the underlying opinions. This is a key indicator of how people will poll in the future. |

>>“Kerry has got to re-focus his campaign to address economic anxiety and other issues that are obvious concerns for voters. Kerry leads among those who say that their top issues are jobs and the economy (50%-39%), education (48%-37%), the war in Iraq (50%-36%), and health care (50%-34%). But, among those who say that the ‘war on terrorism’ is their top concern, Bush leads by 41 points (66%-25%).
“Right now all the talk is on the ‘war on terrorism.’ Kerry has to change the talk.”<<
So "independent pollsters" are supposed to provide advice to one side or the other?
