LS previously mentioned the possibility that we’re seeing a replay of 1996, where all the pollsters (save Zogby) were not just wrong, they were wildly wrong. Sure, they got the “winner” right, but Clinton’s margins were wildly overestimated. Some polls had Clinton over Dole by as much as 24 points.

Let me say this is only a possibility. I don't want to start "disbelieving the polls," but I do see a lot of funny stuff with the internals.
One camp or the other will be very surprised on election day.
