see it here! here's a summary(october results in parentheses):
dean: 22 (13)
lieberman: 13 (13)
clark: 12 (17)
gephardt: 9 (12)
kerry: 8 (10)
sharpton: 8 (5)
edwards: 5 (8)
braun: 3 (3)
kucinich: 2 (3)
margin of error: +/- 5 percent.
the good (for dean) and the bad (for dems
and bush):
"Gov. Dean was surging even before the Gore endorsement. He has the most commanding lead -- except for Sen. Hillary Clinton -- of any candidate in this see-saw Democratic pack," said Maurice Carroll, director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute.
"But are the Democrats competing for the right to lose to President Bush? The President gets at least 50 percent against any of the nine Democratic wannabe's and for good measure, tops Sen. Clinton, the Democratic favorite who says she's not running."
But not all the news is good for President Bush: American voters approve 51 -- 43 percent of the job Bush is doing, matching his all-time low of 51 -- 42 October 29.
bush has an 11 point lead over dean (was six points a couple months ago). turkey? drugs? stocks? what accounts for the small bounce?
my guess? he's been able to saturate the airwaves over the holiday season. that all changes now - as the primary campaign kicks into high gear. all the major candidates are in striking distance a year out.
