And Discoshaman drops him like a bad habit. . . Examine the record:
Zogby called the race at 5pm ON ELECTION DAY. Here was his best guess:
311 KERRY
203 BUSHAS OF NOV 2ND 5pm
Discoshaman, a full day earlier, thusly prognosticated:
Bush 282
Kerry 256
Final Tally:
Bush 286
Kerry 252
Humility almost keeps me from pointing out that I totally called the bogusness of the "Youth Vote". I also had Bush taking the popular vote, though I was 1.5% off on the total. I called Daschle, and every single Senate race correctly, with the happy exception of Alaska. I misunderestimated the Republican tide in the House a little, giving them only +2.
Still though, I took Zogby out like the trash. Discoshaman -- the name you can trust.

Good call John. And thank God for the young, moral vote!

Yeah, I'm done with Zogby too. He blew the Senate race in Colorado two years ago, and now he's flubbed the whole country. Maybe he can get his groove back, but it'll take me a couple of successful election cycles to trust him again.
The winner in this year's prognostications (besides you) was Tradesports. They called the EC vote perfectly, at least before they drank deeply of the exit pool Kool-Aid on Tuesday.
