It's easier to be the most accurate (and least accurate) when you only poll one primary (not a primary actually, but a caucus).
Indiana was a primary...?
Now that I'm looking it up, they did poll Indiana couple of weeks before the primary. Had it as Obama +3 - barely within the MOE.
But what else did they poll, because a one-point miss in Iowa and a four-point miss in Indiana does not give me a 0.75 accuracy average.
They had an OK Michigan poll:
