The most salient factor in all the recent polls is a significant reduction in Rudd’s popularity versus the previous stratospheric support.

Maybe he needs another overseas trip. It always helps his popularity. His only problems occur when he comes back.

Well, the Essential Research poll is certainly worthless then.

Not at all. A slight swing upward, just like Newspoll.

Suck it up GP!

All polls except for the actual election are rogue.

The only thing common in all polls is Rudd’s satisfaction rating is down, but still generally quite high.

Newspoll will always be better for Labor.

So another rogue Nielsen poll then.

Pretty lame considering it seems Fairfax can only afford to do 3 a year now.

All the polls have had some very wierd numbers this week. ER with an improvement for the government but poor numbers on the budget, ACN with poor numbers for the government but good budget numbers, and Newspoll with ALP primaries up but Kevs numbers down. Very, very odd.
