And you can call it ‘bedwetting’, but when a pollster I respect comes out with O+1 after Brit Hume and Numbersmuncher (a respected poll analyzer on Twitter) expected them to come out at R+5, yeah it shakes my confidence a bit.

The Battleground's polls internals have Romney 52-47 among likely voters. Romney +5.

The Obama 49-48 number was "all respondents". Meaningless.

On another thread, it was stated that 0 was up 1 on *raw numbers*, only. Otherwise, Romney leads by 5.

0 predicted to win by +1? Within margin of error. Final prediction Romney +5, outside even the highest MOE.

“...among likely voters. Romney +5”

That explains it!

I just saw this piece on the Weekly Standard

and I couldn’t figure out how that made sense, since I remembered this thread.
