One thing for sure when your polling is dead on with one party, the Republicans, and then off in double digits across the board with the Democrat party, your credibility as a pollster is in serious question.
It is imperative that the polling wizards figure out what went wrong, or never to be believed again. Polling is news making, that's it's only purpose these days, but being this bad wrong is disastrous if you want people to watch next time. Internet polling is clearly a trailing indicator, reflecting the drive by media's news cycle, so it's useless on it's face -- Well maybe as a gauge of the drive bys success in pushing whatever line they are pushing that day. But not so the vaunted drive by polling units, the real deals, Gallup, Rasmussen, this is supposed to be accurate, and it wasn't.
Was it the drive by media wanted Obama to win? The drive by media must find out, their credibility, and audience, is at stake from here on. More here.
My take, illegal Hillary voters in NH, from Massachusetts and Vermont.
