you know a campaign is in bad shape when they brag about being only down 2 points.

I mean they tried to rig a Breitbart poll and still were five points down. When even you're alt-right neo-nazi propaganda can't show you in the lead, what can you possibly do???


Apparently Nate silver thinks the poll is worth adjusting to trump...

538's model doesn't really know how to handle a poll with the all-over-the-place reputation of Zogby. It doesn't really miss consistently in one direction, it is just bad in general.

Fortunately with a C- rating, it shouldn't be weighted too much, either.

We'd all be better off just ignoring Zogby completely.

Indeed, it's a strategy that has served us well for the past decade and I see no reason not to continue ignoring it.
