I’m done with polls, I think they’re inaccurate, based on an outmoded sampling technique (landline phones), and self-serving to the political interests of the pollsters.

So to be consistent, I can’t get excited even when the trend is favorable.

We have a great opportunity discredit polling this year. It is my hope that Obama goes into election day with a sizeable lead in the polls and McCain wins the election by a sizeable margin. Then we could spend the next decade or two talking about how "useless" polling is.
