Food for thought

After my post on polls the Quinnapiac company came out with several polls showing Obama leading in places that he lost badly in the primaries. I was rather doubtful of the accuracy of the polls, but was wary about my possible prejudice based on my investment of my authorship of a recent blog post on this subject.

I looked back in some archives and came up with this interesting brief but instructive information.

ABC/Washington Post polls:

June 2004: Bush 42, Kerry 48

June 2008: McCain 42, Obama 48

Anyone wanna take a guess on who had lower favorability ratings in June of those years, Bush or McCain? I rest my case. Keep your eyes on the candidates and their reactions.
