Has anyone else looked at the internals of this poll?

Some groups missing from the internals because they were too small for crosstab analysis (which means less than 68 generally speaking, per group):

-Liberals
-People under 50 years of age
-People who didn't go to college
-Non-Whites
-Northeastern, Western, and Midwestern residents

However, the clearest red flag is that, pre debate, Romney had a 54% favorable rating, five points higher than Obama's pre debate rating (49%)... that seems like a pretty clear outlier.


Now, I'm not saying Obama won the debate... I personally think he got his ass kicked. I will say that this poll seems likely to overestimate the ass-kicking.
