Obama, the polls and the outcomes...
I'd like to make one quick point regarding the discrepancies between the polls and then the outcomes of the first four contests on the Democratic side of the primary races...
I don't believe that the national polls are accurately reflecting Obama's support given that he is consistently winning the "under 30" vote and this demographic is becoming increasingly more difficult for pollsters to track due their dependence on the only phone they own... their cell phones. You see pollsters don't call cell phones when they conduct polls so all of these polls we see are with older folks who have home phones...
As a 35 year old voter with only a cell phone, I'm glad to see that the pundits and the pollsters are being surprised again and again with elections results during this very exciting time for American politics.
