They are busy pimping the outlier polls.

The recent Florida polls have been very inconsistent. For example:

Fox News Poll:
Rubio up 43-27-21
Scott trailing 41-49

Reuters/Ipsos:
Rubio 40-26-21
Scott LEADING 47-45

One poll has Rubio outperforming Scott; one the opposite, with a 9 point spread between the two reads.

The CNN/Time poll also has Scott running ahead of Rubio, but both doing poorly:
Rubio 36-34-24
Scott trailing 42-49

Sunshine State/Susquehanna Polling shows Scott/Rubio even:
Rubio 43-29-23
Scott trailing 42-44

The CNN/Time poll is an obvious outlier for the Senate race, so their Governor results are also well off the mark. Which leaves the Fox News poll as truly mystifying. Fox used Rasmussen's methodology and vendor for the poll, but the result was very strange.
