There is a lot of talk about the latest Gallup daily tracker showing Clinton opening up a lead over Obama yesterday. Here’s the problem though – the polls have been wrong. I’m not dissing the pollsters on this, it’s an extremely complex year to poll. With record levels of new registrations and people declaring and/or switching parties, it makes it hard for the pollsters to track down the actual voters. Generally they pick their respondents based upon previous elections and party affiliation. This year that doesn’t give a highly reliable pool of people to choose from.
