I'm Voting For…

So, who listens to the polls?

In the past month, Giuliani is down, Huckabee is up, Clinton is down and Obama is up. Wow.

At first glance, I might be concerned (cough), but I am not.

The poll was conducted by USA Today/Gallup, and I presume they asked the participants who they were likely to vote for.

Guiliani is sitting at 25% vs. 28% in the previous survey.

Huckabee came in at 16% vs. 10% before.

Clinton finished at 39%, down from 48%.

Obama rose to 24% from 21% in the last one.

The poll has a margin of error of +/- 5 points. Once you account for the margin of error, the only one with any significant change is Hillary Clinton, and even then the percentage drop isn't huge.

So what do you think? Shuold we be listening to the polls? Is support for Hillary and Rudy dropping? Are people swaying towards Huckabee and Obama? What about McCain? You know he hates to be ignored, dagnabbit.

I have been polled three times about my choice for President in 2008, and not once have I given the real answer. Why? Because it's nobody's business, and polls are nothing more than opportunities for media to create their own sound bites.
