Still predicting McCain to win Colorado and ignoring everything in the past month is not principled, it is idiotic. Then again, consider the source...
BRTD, I don't change my predictions. I regard it as cheating. Anybody can look at at polls one week and change them later. I don't ignore current treamds, but I'm not like Zogby, or apparently you, either.
I don't understand why one prediction, made from looking at polls (in part, I assume) is superior just because it was made at an arbitrary time.
That just means it's more risky and subject to event changes (more fun!), and more likely to be wrong for self-limiting of data (more useless!)
