It looks like most of the polls that poll everyone are calling it a draw, maybe a slight edge to Kerry - which means that Kerry supporters liked Kerry, Bush supporters liked Bush. The CBS poll, which focuses only on undecideds, gives a solid Kerry win.
Everyone is saying its boring. OK, I thought it was a bit repetitive, but boring?

The ABC poll had 8 percent more Republicans, and gave Kerry a 1 percent advantage. So that's good for Kerry. But the polls are missing the point, I think. Kerry is trying win over swing voters, and Bush is trying to mobilize his base. The polls are a pretty lousy way to tell whether Bush's strategery is working -- it all depends on how likely voters are to turn out, and none of the pollster really tell how they're figuring that out.
edited to fix "CBS" to "ABC" -- t.s.
