I've said it before, and I'll say it again.  SUSA is getting more and more ridiculous.  They seem to fluctuate around a 10% accuracy mark.  I think the average of SUSA polls, since they include no weighting, might have validity. But any poll SUSA conducts that strongly looks like an outlier, I strongly feel, is almost no different than a Zogby Interactive.



I've been saying this for a bit as well.  SUSA *never* has a boring poll and that, considering their volume of polls, is suspicious since the more exciting pollsters get a lot more business.

Take a look at the companion Senate poll for a good laugh.

For those who are too lazy, their senate poll has:
Coleman 43
Franken 33



Yeah.

yeah...

I hate joining a partisan gang bang on a poll showing not in my favor, but I've been bashing SUSA pro-Obama polls too.

I will say this... McCain carrying MN and Obama carrying IN would make for one hell of an amusing election night. Wink

Same with Obama carrying Utah and McCain carrying New York.
