The skewing of the NYT poll is a headshaker. Sullivan.

THAT NYT POLL: A seasoned Republican analyst emailed me this to explain the somewhat dismal polling for the president in Sunday's NYT poll:
In the most recent Gallup poll, the party ID was 37 percent GOP and 37 percent Democratic. In the AP/Ipsos poll, the party ID was 42 percent GOP and 45 percent Democratic. And in the CBS/NYT poll on Sunday, the party ID was 34 percent GOP and 47 percent Democratic. Is it any wonder the numbers were what they were? This is more evidence, in my judgment, why you shouldn't trust the NYT polls. (In their last poll, the NYT had a ten-point advantage for Democrats in the party ID.)
That strikes me as a pretty devastating indictment of the polling at the New York Times. Is the skewing deliberate? The Washington Post poll today shows some similar down-draft on domestic policies, but is far more favorable to Bush than the NYT's analysis. Can we even trust the NYT polls any more? Over to you, Dan Okrent.
