Have fun with the trolls.
This is the last time today that I am going to warn them about this or other polls that I am privy to.
Why should I bother?
No good deed goes unpunished...

PRAISE THE LORD!
I hope you mean it.
Don’t let the negative posts of one or two people stop you from posting what you see fit. You are stronger than that.
Public polls serve two purposes, to sell advertising and to advance agendas. Newspaper and network polls are designed to do both, but just before the election they tend to get more serious as their clients will look at results the next time around. Selzer has more credibility than most of the others because they appear to be a more serious organization without much of the above mentioned baggage.
Unfortunately, people pay attention to what they want to hear and dismiss all the rest. That’s why public polls must be treated with caution, for the most part they are just part of the effort to sway the vote.
The demographics on the Quinnipiac poll are interesting. Slight advantage on sampling of Democrats and women, unlikely to represent results tomorrow, but 40% reported that they had already voted.
Also, some might find your suggestion humorous that you were providing them with some sort of “privileged” information — from a publicly posted poll that shows up at RCP, which believe it or not most of the Freepers actually know about, and many have book-marked.
