As I said in the other thread, strictly speaking, most of the poll checks out. (In fact, the only major problem with its internals is a serious underestimate of the black vote--which IIRC was 25% in 2004.) That said, Civitas Institute has released polls before, and none of them have ever been anywhere close to right.
