New LA TIMES Poll: Kerry hurt by Swift Boat attacks, Bush ahead 49% -46% for the first time this year, Bush takes 15% of all Democrats, 20% of 'conservative/moderate' Democrats while Kerry takes 3% of Republicans...

[Brody]

I would be willing to bet you Bush is actually over 50%, but the media can't have the public knowing that, because over 50% = re-elected.

There is a new Gallup poll due out tomorrow.

Sending that stooge Mad Max on that crazy trip reeked of desperation...Kerry knows things are falling apart....his private polls are probably worse.

Did the LATimes ask about Extraterestrials????
That would have boosted Kerry.

E.T. Phone home with the latest Vietnam tale that matches the current
political cllimate.

I guess North Korea's endorsement didn't do too much for him.

No wonder Kerry and the media are going crazy trying to discredit the SBVFT. Their hero is fading before their very eyes.

Just checked out a liberal website to see if there was any response to this revelation...guess what? 0 response.

How can you respond to that? This poll is consistent with all the polls done this week - both Kerry and his poll numbers are sinking rapidly!

an 11 point swing from early July

Go ahead and blame us.. That is our goal, to keep Kerry out of office

As we all used to say Sorry about that!!! NOT

WASHINGTON -- President Bush heads into next week's Republican national convention with voters moving slightly in his direction since July amid signs that John F. Kerry has been nicked by attacks on his service in Vietnam, a Los Angeles Times Poll has found.


For the first time this year in a Times survey, Bush led Kerry in the presidential race, drawing 49 percent among registered voters, compared to 46 percent for the Democrat. In a Times Poll just before the Democratic convention last month, Kerry held a 2 percentage point advantage over Bush.


That small shift from July was within the poll's margin of error. But it fit with other findings in the Times Poll showing the electorate edging toward Bush over the past month on a broad range of measures, from support for his handling of Iraq to confidence in his leadership and honesty.


Although a solid majority of Americans say they believe Kerry served honorably in Vietnam, the poll showed that the fierce attacks on the senator from a group of Vietnam veterans criticizing both his performance in combat and anti-war protests at home have left some marks: Kerry suffered small but consistent erosion compared to July on questions relating to his Vietnam experience, his honesty and his fitness to serve as commander in chief.

knowing the bias of the LA Times, the lead is actually about 52 Bush, 45 Kerry.

I so distrust the LAT I will post something that seems completely paranoid and I hope isn't true. Their polling might have shown a deadlocked race, or Bush even behind, and they reported he was up so there would be no bounce from the convention. They have manipulated numbers to such an extent I believe such is possible.

Also, if that poll is accurate and Kerry is falling fast at some point I am certain the DNC would ask him to leave the race. Even though this would be bad for Bush I for one would sleep better at night knowing Kerry would not be the president even though another Democrat might be.
