Actually, PPP was completely wrong in the Alaska senate race.  They said Murkowski was a lock.

So I don't see why you would consider them credible.

What PPP wrote:

http://publicpolicypolling.blogspot.com/2010/06/does-palins-endorsement-even-matter.html

"Folks who don't pay a lot of attention to Alaska polling numbers might assume that Sarah Palin is by far the most popular Republican in the state and that Lisa Murkowski could be seriously affected by Palin's endorsement of her primary opponent...but that's not true. Murkowski's 77/13 approval with Republican voters is almost identical to Palin's 78/15 favorability. Because of that Murkowski won't likely see much negative effect from Palin's action.

And for what it's worth when you get beyond the GOP base in Alaska Murkowski is much more popular than Palin- a 52/36 approval spread compared to the former Governor's 47/45 favorability."

You know what happened in reality.

Yes and they were wrong back then.

The notion that Miller came back in the last two weeks from thirty points down is bs.  if that were true, they wouldn't have split the absentees evenly.

The polls were always wrong about Murkowski, Miller, and Palin.

it was an opinion based on a poll it conducted in Alaska.  As you can see from the alaska results, the poll was clearly wrong.

An incumbent with a 77% rating doesn't lose to someone with she outspent 10-to-1.  So it makes sense that she never had a 77% rating and that PPP missed back then,.
