I started a report on my analysis of the "expert" polling groups' 2010 House race track record, based on the work I did for Key House Races on FR.
I'll publish that report soon, but the early take is that they rode the fence for as long as possible. It was my opinion that they were trying to astroturf people into believing that the backlash against Obama was not the wave that people were saying. It wasn't until the very end that they were forced to land with Republicans only to save their reputations as pundits. But they waited until the last possible moments to break.

You have a big job in front of you. Let us know what you find.
This statement by you gives me faith in your analysis:
“It wasn’t until the very end that they were forced to land with Republicans only to save their reputations as pundits.”
Best of luck, FRiend.
