Encouraging news.

Emerson College wasn't as terrible as I remembered in the primaries. Bloomberg has them just behind *gasp* Gravis at predicting the winner 94% of the time 15 of 16. (Gravis hit 18 of 19).

Emerson's margin miss was 7.2, which was right on par with Monmouth (7.3), but better than Marist (7.5)/Q (8.2).

With that said, 538 has them with a R+1.3 house effect and rates them a B- (for 2012).

Yeah... What the hell is this?
3 point? Wtf? How did they calculate it?
They must have some academic research suggesting that kind of bias is my guess.

They probably have some academic study to justify that adjustment is my guess.

is this the best quack Republican firms can do?
This is a college, not a Republican or Democrat outfit.

Emerson polls always have quack levels of Republican bias.
And Marist/Monmouth and Q seem to be showing a D bias this cycle. So what? All three remain colleges or universities. You take the biases in consideration and go from there.

From a net margin and horserace predictor basis Emerson > Marist/Monmouth/Q in the primaries.
