Looks like you're right on, Jeffsky. There are now big questions about that Zogby poll I quoted yesterday - the one that showed that right now all the GOP candidates would beat Hillary. It wasn't a scientific poll. Turns out Zogby decided to only poll people who opted into the "please poll me" e-mail list that he runs. So it doesn't represent a cross-section of randomly selected voters. People could easily skew the results by posting about the poll on partisan sites, encouraging their friends to take the poll. I wasn't aware of Zogby's questionable track record. No more Zogby polls for me!
