This is a polling firm that has 'marketing' in its name.

A lot of them do market research.
You missed the point complete, J.J.

No, a lot of polling firms specialize in market research.  That doesn't necessarily translate well into experience with political polling. I'm skeptical because, until the last month, I've never heard of these people.  They probably are okay, technically, with what they normally do.

Gravis has a Republican house effect, but this still shows a swing of 4 points towards Romney -- even if you're too skeptical to include it in your average (and averages are supposed to include outliers, folks), you should still note the swing.

Gravis isn't exactly known as a political pollster.

I'd rather be told that I'm lacking knowledge in university-level physics than second grade spelling. Don't think you've got too much to worry about, krazen.

Anyhow, this is great news.

I'll volunteer to assist anyone who want a boost in this area. Smiley And at the professional level, physics research is as much about statistics as anything.

Although I don't think the top line numbers are right, the change from the previous poll is what is notable. Its more evidence there was at least a small bounce for Romney.
