Polling information

[Troy McClure]

Another polling gathering site to contribute is http://www.fivethirtyeight.com/
It takes every poll that it can get its hands on, and from there interpolates it into charts, graphs, probability analysis, etc. Really fascinating stuff since I'm a math geek.

The main person that built and maintains this site is actually a Major League Baseball statistical guru at http://www.baseballprospectus.com/.

I don't trust polling at all this year. We had a layover in Washington DC yesterday, and in the politically themed stores they had, everyone was almost out of Obama pins, shirts, hats, etc, while the racks were still chock-full of McCain stuff. I tend to find that more compelling than polls these days....
