According to rasmussen and zogby... the day before the 2010 election... both predicted Martha Coakley would defeat Scott Brown by 5 to 9 points. Brown won. This was done in the final hour of Sean Hanity's show. Check it out... none of these pollsters are without fault.

“none of these pollsters are without fault”

Exactly. Would anyone here bet significant money on an outcome based on any poll results? If you look at the MOE on many of these polls, there is marked volatility outside the MOE. Either the opinions of the electorate bounce around like ping pong balls, or these polls are very susceptible to daily fluctuation.
