I'd much rather have a couple high-quality pollsters showing D+10 than a pollster with a dubious track record and methodology showing D+17, but you've gotta take what you can.

And, granted that I have never been alive for a D+17 let alone D+15 electorate, but individual polling and each party's strategic investments (hinting at their private polls) do not suggest such an environment. I seriously doubt Democrats would be falling behind in the Senate if it electorate was that anti-Republican, nor do I think someone like Hurd or Valadao would look like favorites for reelection.
I dunno, the individual polls definitely do not support a D+15 electorate, but some of the investments do.  SC-01, for example.

VA-10 (Washington Post-Schar School Poll):

Wexton 54 (-2%)
Comstock 43 (+/-)

Kaine 58%
Confederate Corey 39%

Source

is Virginia that inelastic that Kaine is getting only 58% in VA-10? Stewart is a clown. Kaine should be winning statewide with 58%, not in VA-10.

Corey Stewart is chair of the board of supervisors in Prince Willliam County, which is a substantial part of the district. He has a lot more of a base of support in this district than one would otherwise think. The Richmond suburbs and Virginia Beach is where he is likely to underperform hard.
Yeah, keep in mind Kaine used to be mayor of Richmond.  He got a significant bump there in 2012.
