So let us review...

You have to poll 25% more Democrats to get an 11% Obama lead!



You guys are hilarious.

It's a stale PPI poll . But they *released* it hours ago.

MSNBC polls do that too, oversample the Democrats all the time, any MSM poll about will, PPI being among the worst of the others.

Not really. There are more Democrats than Republicans in Ohio and nationally. As early as 2006,

http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2006/pag.../epolls.0.html

More importantly, the Democrat-Republican gap is expanding dramatically, 40-26 according to this Gallup poll from a few months ago.

http://www.gallup.com/poll/104494/De...Advantage.aspx

I suppose you could still make the argument that the size of the gap reported in the poll is inflated a little, but simply stating that the poll is skewed because more Democrats were polled than Republicans is not supported by the facts.
