What is going on?

This far out polling companies are guessing at the how's and whys of people voting. As it gets closer to election you will see most polls fall into line with each other.

It bit them in the ass with their McCain projections last time around.

I have taken polls for yougov or polling point for years. Lately the surveys have gotten even more slanted asking questions about healthcare and gov designed to force a certain answer.

Whenever I see it I rate that poll bad at the end and in the area where you can free lance write I give it to them about what they are doing.

Their polls are obviously skewed to the right.

Rasmussen showed Walker 5 points ahead (50/45). The end results were Walker, 53/46.

Rasmussen obviously didn't skew that poll, not far enough to match the actual vote.

#1. Stop pretending that polls which do not favor Obama are inherently faulted.
#2. A poll is just a snapshot of a moment in time. Watch poll averages, not individual polls, if you must watch polls at all.

Your post doesn't match your headline.



Ps. Your slip is showing.

...maybe it won't be so bad come NOV.
