after the NH disastrous predictions, I would think most people would ignore them!

1. I don't pay any attention to them now.
I'm an Obama volunteer (NH). That really sealed the fate of the biggest polling companies for me. No more. Alot of people won't tell you who they're voting for and they happen to make up a huge chunk of the voting populace.

2. I wonder how many people deliberately lie about who they're
voting for, just because they dislike the polsters? Personally, I'd be tempted to do that just to prove they CAN'T forecast the public!
