That site is a very clever idea, but I wish they explained the methodology better.

There is a link to an example of unskewing a poll, but it is not clear if that is the same methodology used for all the results. Example: http://www.examiner.com/article/is-the-latest-washington-post-abc-poll-skewed-for-obama

I agree with the Peasant (the one in need of a bath)...good idea, but site needs a bit more explanation right up front, without making the user go fishing in the links to the left.

How about putting a label at top saying something like:

Poll Results corrected for current party affiliations

example of methodology

...you could have the "example of methodology" be a link to the example...I think this will be much clearer, and reduce bounces.
