Isn’t it just exhausting defending CBS/NYT polling, RCP, who average liberal over Republican polling 5/1?
No, what's exhausting is seeing the same reflexive hostility to any poll that doesn't provide the desired results. Whenever one of these polls comes out that doesn't tow the desired line, the feedback is predictable.
Does the CBS poll lean to the left? Sure it does. Is it an outlier? Nope, not even close.
