In a wave election, part of the problem is that you feel powerless. Everything I feel I know how to do, that Im trained to do, I cant do. And that feeling is pervasive, said the pollster. Theres a sense that theres nothing you can do about it. When you know your friends are on the chopping block, its hard.Still believe the polls?

Both parties and campaigns have internal/partisan polling. That said, there is definitely push polling by supposedly objective pollsters (like say Newsweak, et al.)
