I still think all the pollsters have basically got together and done a big ole C YA, none of them want to be out on a limb.
As Rush is saying the Dems are VERY over sampled. The polls really are Romney/Ryan 51 and Obama/Bite me 35%. Just vote.
summars I think you nailed it. Gallup was the one polling company sticking its neck out and predicting a big Romney win while others were calling it essentially a tie. Most of the others are still calling it a tie but suddenly Gallup’s big Romney lead disappears. I think Gallup is hedging its bets. If Romney’s Gallup support collapsed so suddenly all the other polls would now be showing a sizeable Obama lead. Gallup still can claim accuracy if Romney takes up to 53% based on the margin of error, or if Obama steals it with a close result.
