Isn't it funny how the left considered Gallop to be the trusted poll, and Rasmussen to be biased until..?
Gallop started showing Romney with a larger lead. Now Gallop is the right wing organization, and Rasmussen is to be trusted.

I never said any couldn't be trusted... and I do think Rassmussen does tend to veer conservative overall...
I have no idea why Gallup is so far out in left field (or right field, as the case may be)... I would look just as strangely as a poll that had Obama up by 5 right now... (I would hope it is true, but fear it would not be)
I doubt it's intentional bias... but it does seem odd

i did not believe Rasmussen till now each and every thing, yet once I observed that virtually the different polleventually exhibits an identical outcomes, purely later, i found out they seem to be a good team. They do certainly to seem biased, yet possibly people who're "probably voters" are purely extra susceptible to be conservative. i think of the reason the white house is set via them, to boot as others, is by using the fact time and time returned they finally end up being perfect. That learn is exciting in that it appeared for bias, yet did not seem to establish who finally ended up being extra precise.. perhaps they did verify this too, yet did not like the outcomes and desperate to not record those outcomes.

The left was cutting Rasmussen down in here yesterday. Rasmussen also shows Romney to have a slight lead.

Polls are taken from un-decided voters in marginal states. The polls fluctuate wildly, depending on the subject matter they are questioned on. They are not predictions, they are opinions taken at certain points during an election campaign. Anyone who believes in the accuracy of Polls should remember that historically, polls have not been a 100% guarantee of a win for either side. Only the election result itself is the vote that matters.

I don't think any poll is 100% correct.
