Pollster a closet Republican, perhaps? I think he is taking into account that historically the polls under estimate the Republican vote. Along the same line of thought. People wonder how the NY TIMES has Hillary way ahead while Zogby has her behind. It turns out that the main difference in the two polls is the estimate of NY city vote. NY TIMES estimates that 31 percent of the vote will come from NY city while Zogby estimates 29 percent. As you can see from this only a slight difference im methodology can make a big difference in the poll. I am using this years races as a learning experience. Since I am not working this year, I have the time for the first time to follow things closely. I actually enjoy it although I am a little concern about the closeness of the race. If you check my profile you will see I am definitely a Bush supporter. So take that for what it is worth.<g>
