It amazes me that there are so many random statistics out there. When the redskins win the last home game before the election, the incumbent wins. If the headline on the wallstreet journal has an even number of letters the challenger wins. When lots of imaginary and dead people vote, the catholic democrat from Massachusets wins. It is always something.

I brought up the Redskins thing for purposes of sarcasm. The polls say "likely voters," but what the hell is a likely voter anyway? All data based on polls of "likely voters" is contingent on the pollsters getting that first part right. Given the extent to which this race for president has deviated from norms, I contend that a poll of "likely voters" is in this case not necessarily representative of the turnout come election day.

Likely voters huh?.....so if they are likely to vote then they are equally as likely not to vote.

Or is my line of reasoning to obvious to be understood?

Likely = probably. I think they get this from people who have voted in the past and are currently registered. Like miss 99 said there is a shitload of "unlikely" voters or new voters.

Hopefully me and my fellow MoveOn.org volunteers have made a noticeable contribution to the amount of those unlikely voters. The heads at the top seem to think so but I'm going to remain cautiously hopeful.

Historical statistics are there to be BROKEN!

Bush can lose Ohio and still win the election. It's possible.
Not 'statistically likely' but definitely possible.

Likewise, MoveOn dot org and Soros are funneling so much money that statistically, Kerry can't lose. But a lot of money can't buy you an election... especially if the other candidate(s) have big bankrolls too.
