Yes he actually has the Texas Senate Race within 10 points.

I'll probably be called an imbecile, but I wouldn't doubt that the senate race is that close. Radnofsky has made something like 500 trips across the state since before the primary, while Hutchinson hasn't made 10.

Plus this video is getting out hard:

I know it's Zogby...but you never know.

Maybe your right but of course its Zogby so the crazyness doesn't stop there. I'm not saying we can't gather anything out of these polls, just not much.

[Eraserhead]

What is the methodology behind these polls?  Does he randomly send an email out to 500 people in each state?

What I want to know is why does the Wall Street Journal put their name on this?

[Eraserhead]

I know the GOp are going to ignore the Webb numbers, but they aren't going to ignore the Kean numbers.

They might as well ignore them. The last two other polls of that race showed Kean leading. This one shows them tied (with Menendez technically leading by 0.2%).

I just noticed that they only have Bell behind Perry by 5, yet again not a suprise. Zogby or not, their Texas numbers seem right in line with what I would expect.

Come on now Bell only 5% behind Perry? That doesn't make much sense.

[Eraserhead]

Cough, I've been saying Bell and Radnofsky have at least a plausible shot for months!

Its Zogby. Don't get excited.

The only polls I see is relevant is:MD, OH, PA, NJ, MN, PA, WA, and MO, all the other senate polls are trash. As far as the Govership: IL, MI, WI, MN, IA, NY, OH, PA, MD, and MA. Everything else is trash. 

I'd actually call the whole thing pretty much trash but sometimes you can find at least a little bit of truth in here. Not much but a little.

Eraserhead this is the quote that you said Webb is winning by, you dispute this here is your post.

Where is the post? I'm talking about the Texas Senate race there.

[Eraserhead]

But you said that you didn't go by Zogby polls and that is false.

Did you even read the title of this thread?

[Eraserhead]

Yes, but some of the polls you got your hopes up and some of them you didn't and I didn't get my hopes up because the poll was released too soon after the August one.

Wrong.

All polls should be trusted.
