You see... THIS isn't unskewing. Unskewing was based on two core pieces of GOP delusion

a) that the 2008 electorate was a fluke, therefore, any Demographic advantage was wrong ("2008 was D+7... this poll is D+5, that can't be!!")
b) not understanding either the changes to party ID since 2008 and that Independents are increasingly not about moderate/centrist views, but rejection/protest.

The 2012 undervalued Obama by about 8-10% with Latino voters and that undervalued him in both national and state polls by 2-4%.
