Last night showed that PPP has a Democratic lean. While some may dismiss bawlexus because they don't like what he's saying, well, he's right - this poll does lean too pro-Democratic.

Polls this early don't exactly reflect what actual election results will be, some of them don't even reflect the exact results close to the election. National polling as odd swings, the next poll probably will be a lot closer.
There's a simple explanation why this poll is too pro-Obama - the sample. This is with 2012 turnout better for Democrats than 2008, which is highly unlikely.

I made the painstaking journey to the Gubernatorial polls board to have a look for myself at this apparently legendary PPP f-up. They predicted a Walker 3 point victory and he won by 6 and some change on a four point margin of error.

I demand baxlexus and tmth give me my money back after such a lofty promise.
There was no promise - but the results do show that PPP has a Democratic lean, which is what we've been suggesting for a while could be the case.
