The Colorado Recall was a low turnout election so anybody could get those 2 recall elections wrong. Even Sean Trende didn't write about those 2 recall elections pre-recall because he thought the Democrats would win them both. He wrote about them after the elections took place.

If you're going to throw out the pretense of "science" from polling you might as well bring back the Literary Digest.

I think Gallup went down that route last year.
No, actually Gallup's "Registered Voter Model" was correct having Obama ahead 49-48% but its "Likely Voter Model" had Romney winning the election in terms of the popular vote(47-45%) I think.
