Why is Gallup showing such a wide margin compared to other polls showing a dead-even race?

Why is Gallup showing such a wide margin compared to other polls showing a dead-even race?Because Gallup is a good pollster and the others are biased, poll on weekends, use bad methodology, etc., etc. ;)

Why is Gallup showing such a wide margin compared to other polls showing a dead-even race? Gallup uses a multi step process to filter out the 'real' voters - you need to pass several levels of questions to be a 'likely' voter ...

Because they're right?

The other polls are biased hacks. Thats the honest truth too.

Why is Gallup showing such a wide margin compared to other polls showing a dead-even race? No idea. Rasmussen/Zogby and some others will always show a close race because he weights self reported party identification back to 2000 levels. Gallup does not. Gallup weights according to a host of demographics but not party ID. Which is right? I think we will know in a couple of weeks.
