... within the margin of error. I don't remember any mention of "statistical TIE" when Bush was up within the margin of error.

3. Yeah, well, Kerry will have the last laugh
when his margin of victory is well outside the bounds of a "statistical tie."

5. That may work in Kerry's favor
by making sure pro-Kerry voters don't become complacent. They know their vote will make a difference, so they will do what it takes to vote.

6. There meme is too close to call
it will help give them the cover they need if there is an attempt to steal the election once again.

9. I wrote to AOL about it. They had the Zogby poll this morning...
The headline was something like--Bush has narrow one-point lead. Later on they had the AP poll, which showed Kerry ahead by three, and they called it a "tie."
