I don’t want to hang RCP on just one set of polls, but they clearly over estimated Conway over Bevins in Kentucky.
The results were far from almost all the polls. Does this prove the polls are wrong, not to be trusted? No, but it should still give us all pause.
People are pissed off at the status quo, and frankly, I think Obama is starting to hurt the democrats with all his recent remarks pushing back on the Republicans on national security issues rather than taking a strong stance of support.
Over the past few days I see a lot of anger and frustration over Obama’s remarks on Facebook, this from people who are otherwise Left-leaning.
Will they vote for Trump or Cruz over Hillary or Sanders? Mostly no. But if the Republican nominee can chip away on them, peeling off 15-20%, then they could win it all.
Thank you.
If you start a ping list, for your polling updates, please add me. TIA.
Please add me to any ping list that you might create to disseminate this well-researched info. RCP hasn’t updated for any major poll since November 4th, as Jack Nicholson might say: “RCP can’t handle the truth!”
RCP does not use the Morning Consult, nor the Reuters/Ispos five day rolling poll. They are no consistent on others. Currently it shows Trump up by 1% and thats got to be so far off from state polls I see that is laughable.

Yes, Memphis and Nashville are hard core lib Dem. But the east has a lot of “moderate” Repubs, mostly around Knoxville.

We’re away from the ‘big’ city, so hopefully people here are smarter.
