It is all spin. I do not trust any poll, I do not care how scientific they claim to be. The press is wanting to split the party and they know and Rooty or Romney nomination will do that over a Hunter or FDT nod.

Over a decade ago when CA was voting on prop. 187, the media said from the minute the polls opened that it was 50/50 based on post-election polling. They stuck with that story the entire day. When numbers starting trickling in - it was never even close. It passed by a landslide. From that day on, I've never trusted a poll until I know who paid for it, read the questions exactly as they were asked, and knew what group they were polling. And if it's an MSM poll, it'll be biased no matter what.

Have a look at Intrade.

Their only bias is whether or not you can make money selling futures contracts on the candidates. Thompson is tanking over there.
