A Moveable Feast: Bush Gets Fat on "Moveable Voters," 52-33Oct. 29, 2004 -- A better showing among movable voters has helped put George W. Bush back at the 50 percent mark, with 47 percent support for John Kerry among likely voters as the 2004 presidential campaign enters its closing days. Kim Richards? Is there any doubt?
Other polling news ranges from mixed to light Kim Richards. Zogby will claim that Kerry is up by one in tomorrow's poll. The Cleveland Plain Dealer will show Bush up by 3, 48-45, in Ohio. October 30, 2004 -- President Bush jumped to a 5-point nationwide lead in a Fox News poll out yesterday amid growing but very cautious optimism among Republicans that the president will win Florida and the swing state of Iowa. The article notes the obvious-- Bush can lose Ohio, but then he'd have to pick up a couple of Gore states to win. Damnit, Curt Schilling has backed out of campaigning with Bush in NH. The Rocky Mountain News shows Bush with a suspiciously-big lead in Colorado, 51-42. Real Clear Politics' summary looks good for Bush, but just barely so: ABC/Wash Post: Bush 50, Kerry 47, Nader <1 FOX/Op Dyn: Bush 50, Kerry 45, Nader <1 | Bush JA @ 49 Battleground (w/leaners | 10/25-10/28): Bush 51, Kerry 46 | Bush JA @ 53 Rasmussen: Bush 50, Kerry 48 | Zogby: Bush 47, Kerry 47, Nader 1 TIPP: Bush 46, Kerry 46, Nader 2 | Bush 45, Kerry 45 Kick the dog and brew the coffee, it's going to be a long Tuesday Night. posted by Ace at 03:24 AM
CommentsHit link. (And Schilling was told by the Boston brass to shut the fuck up.) Posted by: TC-LeatherPenguinl on October 30, 2004 03:53 AM
Woo-hoo! This means I don't have to vote! Kidding, kidding. I want my vote to slice like an fucking hammer. No, screw that. I want my vote to slice like fucking mjolner! (Sorry to non-geek readers. Thor's hammer and all.) I just wish Arnold was campaigning for Bush out here in California. It might make a difference EC-wise. I mean, did anybody else see the Columbus, OH rally on the teevee? The crowd was gi-nomous and they were going apeshit with enthusiasm! Posted by: Sean M. on October 30, 2004 04:31 AM
I wonder if there's something in Schilling's contract about avoiding actions that might negatively impact his team's business prospects. Anyway, backing out just might be more effective than appearing would have been if it gets more press coverage so more swing-able voters hear about it and learn he was planning to back Bush. At a Bush rally, he would mostly have been preaching to the choir. It will be interested to see the polls taken Saturday and Sunday, assuming folks have had a chance to absorb the cumulative impact of the two terrorist statements/threats. One plus for the RNC: it seems unlikely the OBL tape will leave enough media oxygen to sustain explosivesgate.

Big news here is that Bush is at or over 50% in 3 of 5 tracking polls for first time...if he can maintain that thru Monday, look for BIG win on Tuesday. Posted by: superhawk on October 30, 2004 06:20 AM
Whatever happened to Kim Richards, anyway? Damn she was HOOOOT in "Tuff Turf" with James Spader. Christ, that was what, in 1985 or so... I'm getting old. Posted by: Roy in Illinoisq on October 30, 2004 07:24 AM
Curt Schilling! Censorship! Ashkkkroft! Gitmo! Patriot Act! Speaking truth to power! Hope you've got the giant hi-res split-beaver shot of Kim Richards ready to go for Tuesday night. Posted by: Paul Zrimsek on October 30, 2004 10:00 AM
Well I'm in liberal-infested Connecticut, which is firmly in the bag for Kerry *spit* -but I will vote anyway, and I hope that my fellow Constitution State Conservatives turn out the vote too, just to make it closer than usual and see the complacent libbies crap their diapers like they did in the '02 midterm elections. Posted by: lauraw on October 30, 2004 10:42 AM
I think either MSNBC or one of the news papers uses the Mason Dixon poll. They are probably the most accurate historically, at least in the 2002 elections they missed only 1 race. Zogby is was supposedly WAY off in 2002. I like mason dixon, they do not have a new poll every 3 days. they do it every few weeks which i think shows less of the jumping around. Kerry Spot did a bit on this a while back about the history of the polls. Posted by: Jennifer on October 30, 2004 10:58 AM
Zogby did you say? Oh, you mean the guy whose brother leads a Muslim American organization that has endorsed Kerry. But that won't change anything in his professional work. wink, wink, nod Bush's JA is +50 and he's polling over 50%. End. Of. Story. And I already mailed mine. Everybody else drag somebody to the polls on Tuesday!! Posted by: Birkel on October 30, 2004 11:06 AM
Schilling was on crutches getting into the parade boat today. Unfortunately, the injury may have finally caught up to him...to bad for W. But the endorsement stands, nevertheless. Posted by: sonofnixon on October 30, 2004 11:16 AM
BTW, Red Sox co-owner Tom Werner (who dates Katie Couric) held a Kerry rally last week at the Sox farm club's stadium in Lowell, MA. So, it would be very hypocritical for Sox brass to proclaim: "No campaigning" Besides, I do not believe that Schilling would accept such a order. Posted by: sonofnixon on October 30, 2004 11:20 AM
I've forgiven Schilling for leaving the Phillies. Posted by: Joe R. the Unabrewer on October 30, 2004 11:55 AM
We will know this election has broken wide open for W when Ace proclaims that "Bush is getting Oliver Willis fat" on undecided voters.... Posted by: senator philabuster on October 30, 2004 12:20 PM

Megyn Kelly finally calls out Candace Owens
Whoops, I meant she bravely attacks Sydney Sweeney for "bending the knee." (Sweeney put out a very empty PR statement saying "I'm against hate." Whoop-de-doo.) Megyn Kelly claims she doesn't want to call people out on the right when asked about Candace Owens but then has no compunctions at all about calling people out on the right. As long as they're not Candace Owens. Strangely, she seems blind and deaf to anything Candace Owens says. That's why this woman calls her "Megyn Keller." She's now asking her pay-pigs in Pakistan how they think she should address the Candace Owens situation, and if they think this is really all about Israel and the Jews.

More revelations about the least-sexy broken relationship in media history
I'd wanted to review Parts 2, 3, and 4 of Ryan Lizza's revenge posts about Olivia Nuzzi, but they're all paywalled. I thought about briefly subscribing to get at them, but then I read this in Part 2: Remember the bamboo from Part 1? Do I ever! It's all I remember! Well, bamboo is actually a type of grass, and underground, it's all connected in a sprawling network, just like the parts of this story I never wanted to tell. I wish I hadn't been put in this position, that I didn't have to write about any of this, that I didn't have to subject myself or my loved ones to embarrassment and further loss of privacy. We're back to the fucking bamboo. Guys, I don't think I can pay for bamboo ruminations. I think he added that because he was embarrassed about all the bamboo imagery from Part 1. He's justifying his twin obsessions: His ex, and bamboo. Which is not a tree but a kind of grass, he'll have you know.
Olivia Nuzzi's crappy Sex and the City fanfic book isn't selling, says CNN (and CNN seems pretty pleased about that)
On Tuesday, the book arrived in stores. At lunchtime, in the Midtown Manhattan nexus of media and publishing, interest in Nuzzi's story seemed more muted. The Barnes and Noble on Fifth Avenue had seven copies tucked into a "New & Notable" rack next to the escalator, below Malala Yousafzai's "Finding My Way." Not many had sold so far, a store employee said. She trashes Ryan Lizza for his "Revenge Porn" here. Emily Jashinsky says that when the Bulwark's gay grifter Tim Miller asked why she didn't report on the (alleged) use of ketamine by RFKJr., she broke down in tears and asked to end the interview.
