The PIPA report is amazing. I always hear that Bush supporters "know their candidate", but this report conclusively shows that they don't. On 6 out of 8 issues the majority, and sometimes the vast majority, of Bush supporters believe that Bush has a different position on the issue. Only in one case out of eight do Kerry supporters believe that Kerry supports a different position than he actually does, and that is only by a slim margin (-7%).
And that's not really the core of the report. The core is the analysis of the misinformation on Iraq, WMD, and the world perception of the president. Bush supporters are clearly found to be misinformed about the basic facts surrounding the war.
