NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 17, 2000
George Bush is chugging along....
and a new poll has him ahead by a beer.
According to a just-released Sam Adams/Roper Starch poll, more people would rather sit down to drink a beer with George Bush than Al Gore. Although some 24% of people are still undecided, tonight's debate could sway these swing voters.
The Sam Adams' poll gives Bush a 3-point advantage (40% vs. 37%) even though the candidates are practically in a "dead heat" in all other polls. Could it be that Bush is just that much more likeable? Or, has Al Gore's boasting gotten the best of him? Even so, Gore wouldn't be the first to tell tall tales in a bar, now would he? The fact remains though that the people's pick for a quick visit over a beer is Bush.
With one exception...."Hot Lips" Gore still rates higher with women than men (39% vs. 34%).
Still, just like the national election, the title for the "Man America Would Most Like to Drink a Beer With" is very much up for grabs.
