My offer to bet real money that those polls will be proved wrong extends to you as well.

If you actually believe that polls 9 months out have any meaning at all then there is a bridge in NY that you can buy. - After all, you are buying one now.

NORMALLY, you’d be correct, polls 9 months out mean little. But we’re talking about Hillary and McCain, two KNOWN quantities. The odds that a bunch of people will wake up in October and suddenly love Hillary are LONG. It’s even more unlikely that my DEMOCRAT neighbor, who voted for Kerry and Gore, but who tells me that he’d vote for McCain will change his mind by the election. It’s an unusual situation here, we’ve got two candidates who most Americans know right now.

This is why the Dems are terrified we’ll actually nominate McCain.

I did not say that the polls had any meaning, merely that the political forecasting on this site is not something that I would put much stock in.
