but someone correct me if im wrong, didnt suffolk nail new hampshire?

Nope, no one did.  And even if they did, I'd still be suspicious.  Usually, dumb luck that disagrees with all the other pollsters is still just dumb luck.

The link doesn't work, and the numbers looks suspiciously like the SU numbers for IN today, with Clinton and Obama inverted

This was for IN, not NC.

Correct. I'll give an example. Using random.org I got these results from 16 "2004 voting coins". If I apply these to the first 16 states in alphabetical order (correct ones bolded):

AL - Kerry
AK - Kerry
AZ - Bush
AR - Bush
CA - Kerry
CO - Kerry
CT - Kerry
DE - Kerry
DC - Bush
FL - Bush
GA - Kerry
HI - Kerry
ID - Kerry
IL - Kerry
IN - Bush
IA - Kerry

I got 9/16 correct, which actually is a majority, but it doesn't mean this methodology has any validity to it whatsoever.
