mr. right gets it wrong?

Bob Novak, the elder "Mr. Right" on Crossfire, boasted Thursday that pollster John Zogby, who came the closest to getting 2000 right, had changed his mind from April (when he thought Kerry would win) and now predicted a Bush win. Hours later, on "The Daily Show," Zogby himself appeared and when asked his prediction, said quickly and succinctly, "Kerry."

J. Stewart made sure he wasn't kidding and wasn't saying something else "on other shows."
No, Zogby thinks Bush's numbers are too low, and undecideds are likely to break for Kerry. As noted previously, the Pew scholars have concluded that so far the undecided have in fact been breaking more for Kerry.

So besides Bush, Cheney and Gulliani, Mr. Right has some explaining to do Friday.
