By the way, David, do you know whether this video was part of ...

It's not that simple. Nat Hentoff explains with more authority than I can. see below Marta Terri Schiavo: Judicial Murder Her crime was being disabled, voiceless, and at the disposal of our media by Nat Hentoff March 29th, 2005 10:59 AM ...

The others show Kerry well ahead of Bush with the exception of Fox which shows both at 40% but the figures have Kerry ahead of Bush. USA Today doesn't appear to have a vote option but has the Gallup poll results showing Kerry ahead. ...
