They are both as bad as one another. Both equally say that the other won't protect the country as well as they could.

While negative campaigning is unfortunately a common thing with both sides, I think the Republicans have been doing it more than the Democrats. Cheney has even said that if Kerry is elected it *will* lead to a major attack on US soil.

BTW that is a Radio Times poll, so that means it is a BBC poll?

Interesting question. Radio Times is part of BBC Worldwide, which is the Beeb's commercial arm. I don't know whether it has its own staff of in-house hacks or whether it shares the resource with the 'proper' BBC. Their offices are in Wood Lane though, so I'd guess that, to all intents and purposes, it is the same as the BBC itself.

BBC Worldwide has its own offices on Wood Lane, AFAIK they would have their own staff not shared with other BBC divisions.

We have been through the Bush/America thing before, but something curious:

but noted that a Guardian poll showed 47 percent of Britons backed Kerry and 16 percent supported Bush.
16% support Bush? They must be the people that give false answers to polls and quizes for a laugh. I would love to meet with a Bush-liking Guardian reader, and see what he/she is like.

What a shocker - heard on the radio this morning that loads of voting cards have gone missing in Florida...
