But when the lie causes the campaign to waste valuable resources, why not?

Everything you say in a campaign that is mistaken or deceptive or true but just not favorable to you causes the opposite campaign to waste resources. Everything.

It is interesting she walked away from her career immediately after the numbers came out.

Not interesting at all that she was embarrassed. As for misrepresenting, he polls have often been out of sync, quirky. Often she was right. No surprise that this one would be an oddball. I haven't been paying attention but is there evidence that the numbers were fudged or was it just that the analysis was wrong?

And who in the world would think that a contrary poll, regardless of how assembled, would be a strategy to win an election? If I were running for something, I would not put publishing bogus polls in my favor on my todo list for winning. An oddball poll is just noise in the contest if it's above the radar at all.
