I was scrolling through my old posts this morning and I stumbled on one from late May in which I had predicted the opinion polls up until November. I had done well actually, giving Kerry a 'bounce' from mid-july through to late August. The 'early September' prediction had both candidates tied at 47% and for fun, my late September prediction had Kerry 49% Bush 47%. So I thought i'd do it again!
