28. Of course not
and that, I think, is the basic problem people have understanding polls. They don't make any claim to predict the future.

But I don't know of any polls, the day before an election, that were proven to be wrong outside their margin of error. That's my only point: polls are largely accurate, and people who dismiss them are being willfully ignorant.

There are people here who actually believe Kucinich has more support than Clinton, and they believe the polls are all lying. That's a level of denial that's incomprehensible to me.
