That's interesting. Two serious questions. First, do I recall correctly that the last presidential polls were predicting something pretty close to a dead heat? (I wonder if there is a past poll database out there somewhere....) That's not to contradict your observations, I really don't follow polls much so it's a vague memory. Second, do you think political pollsters are more accurate than media pollsters since their reputations (and paychecks?) hinge on closely tracking actual results? (Or are they more accurate at all?)
