Pollsters should poll more Democrats than Republicans, since there are more Democrats than there are Republicans.
That doesn't make the process fair, and it's skewed incorrectly.

What exactly would be fair, then? Polling equal numbers of Democrats and Republicans?

 Yet when there's other polls that poll more Democrats than Republicans, they don't say anything.

That's because there's more Democrats than Republicans out there.

Romney can't be leading by 2 while losing the Hispanic 70-14 and being behind by 4 in Ohio. At least one (and possibly all) of those is wrong.

He's not losing Hispanics that badly. It is hard to accurately poll Latino voters as 2010 shows.

If Obama is leading in every swing state, and winning Hispanics 70-14, how can he be behind? A Mondale-esque white vote?

Latinos and blacks make up .06 or .07 percent of the vote.
