It's sort of a push poll, but yeah, looks about right. RIP, HP.

Maybe Landrieu can keep this within single digits after all!

Someone remembered that 2014 polls were skewed. Someone skewed them in the wrong direction.


As proof:

Lock: Crist wins
Upset: Schauer beats Snyder
Bold Prediction: Deal cracks 50% and avoids a runoff.



Almost as funny as the internal showing Hogan ahead.

Yeah, even in a year where polls across the board had a Democratic bias, Magellan still had a Republican bias. That should tell you something.

All the Keystone pipelines in all of the world won't be big enough to help Mary Landrieu.

"I've got a pipeline, real pipes, real oil!!!" - Mary Landrieu :P

That would make one hell of an image.

Sorry Polnut. ;)

Maybe Landrieu can keep this within single digits after all!

Republican internals have been the most accurate polls of the cycle

Not Magellan.

Anyway, you guys (deservedly) bashed the Democrats who talked about how Democratic internals should be taken at face value because of 2012, but now you're going to do the same thing in reverse?

The thing is I'm referring to a fact of how bad the polls were this cycle that R internals were more accurate than many solid pollsters. The democrats that defended D internals defended it because of their result in 2012, not seeing the result of the pollsters through this cycle. I'm not defending R internals, and the internals should continue to be shameful so long as polling doesn't continue to be as disastrous (whatever bias) is it was in 2014.
