dude, you can't see the forest for the trees.  this anti establishment movement now sets its sights on the Dems.

IT'S DELAWARE!  There's  no way Christine O'Donnell wins in November.

but it probably means the GOP is leading in CA, WA, WI, NV

Nice non-sequitur.

to the contrary, the amount of anti-establishment anger shown tonight probably means the GOP is underpoling by 5-10 percent in CA/WA/WI/NV.

So we've entered the "just make things up" part of the thread?

when only 30 thousand voters were expected, and 60 thousand show up, it's a sign the electorate is being seriously underestimated.

The polls were basiucally correct, though.  They predicted O'Donnell was ahead and she was gaining support.  They pegged the outcome pretty spot on.  So the fact that turnout was high says nothing about the accuracy of the polls and certainly doesn't support the claim that the polls of off by 10%.  They weren't off by 10% in the Massachusetts Senate race, the NY-23 Special, the HI-1 Special, or the Governor's races in New Jersey and Virginia.  The good polls were accurate and the badd polls were not, just like every other election since I've been alive.
