WASHINGTON, Nov. 5 — President Bush on Sunday seized on the conviction of Saddam Hussein as a milestone in Iraq, seeking to rally Republican voters with the issue of national security as some polls suggested that his party might be making gains in the final hours of the campaign.

The White House said the timing of the announcement, two days before Election Day, had nothing to do with American politics and had been dictated by the Iraqi court. But Mr. Bush moved quickly to put it to use in what has been his central strategic imperative over the past week, trying to rouse Republican voters to turn out.

“Today we witnessed a landmark event in the history of Iraq: Saddam Hussein was convicted and sentenced to death by the Iraqi High Tribunal,” Mr. Bush said to roars of approval in a hockey auditorium packed with supporters in Grand Island, Neb. “Saddam Hussein’s trial is a milestone in the Iraqi people’s efforts to replace the rule of a tyrant with the rule of law.”

The announcement out of Baghdad came as polls suggested some gains for Republicans. A Pew Research Center Survey released on Sunday found that the number of likely voters who said they would vote for the Democrats was now 47 percent compared with 43 percent who said they would vote for Republicans. Two weeks ago, Democrats had an edge of 50 to 39. A Washington Post-ABC News poll found a similar tightening.

Here's a case study in disinformation particularly as relates to the Saddam impact on the election. What a load of effluence from the "paper of record."

The guy has been frantically running around the country trying to convince people who should be voting straight GOP party line to get out and vote...

At this stage of the game, that is all he can do...

If he was campaigning in Blue states, I would be worried...

On Edit...

Remember, for every Red State Voter he brings to the poll, he is attracting a Blue State voter to the poll cause that is all everyone is seeing on TV, that ASS HAT out campaigning and chopping at democrats...

It's a double edged sword that will cut for the Dems...

Notice the increase in the margin between Menendez and Kean...

pukes.

i dont understand why his propaganda is printed as 'news'.

leads. Faux is the smallest lead at 13 points.

CNN Poll Gives Democrats 20-Point Advantage Among Likely Voters -- 58% / 38%

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=364&topic_id=2589693&mesg_id=2589693

Here's reality:

CNN poll showing democrats leading by 20 and FOX poll showing democrats leading by 13... I guess that's what they call 'gaining ground'.

New polls? We don't needs no stinkin' New Polls. Can't be bothered. It would just throw off our little story about the Big Republican resurgence.
