Still doesn't answer the question from someone who CLAIMS to know all about statistics.
Let's see, a 13 point gap is justified because.........the dems won an historic election in 2010...because obama won by 7 points.....so, we're gonna just double that by using a party ID of 13 in favor of the dems.
See, there HAS to be some justification for using a chasm that big, wouldn't you say?
If you knew anything about statistics, you would know the poll is defective because of the BIAS they inject in the party ID....unless they are LOOKING for a predetermined result.
As I said they have a methodology and get results. Lowest average error over 21 polls means they are doing something right.
Actually--they didn't "fail" in Wisconsin. If they'd been going after newly elected R's then I'd completely agree, but recalls aren't allowed until someone's been in office for at least a year. The D's took down two long held R seats in very conservative districts, and they defended their own seats from recall. They didn't hit the three that they needed to take over the Senate, but it wasn't an insignificant thing--especially since Dale Schultz--the moderate R who attempted to broker a deal between the tea party and unions over the Walker's budget bill--is voting with the D's against a bill to make it more difficult to run recall elections. Was it a resounding victory? No--but it sure wasn't a victory for the tea party either. http://www.thenorthwestern.com/artic...-recall-change
You don't know much about Wisconsin politics. Randy Hopper was embroiled in a sex scandal and Dan Kapanke was in a blue district that voted for Obama. So your claim that "The Ds took down two long held R seats in very conservative districts" is pure hogwash.
Please stick to shilling for Obama, you do a better job at that.

Hopefully what happened in WI (union BUSTED from their corrupt stranglehold on taxpayers) will happen in OH, although OH is a tougher sell, more union.

So we are suppose to sit back and allow another state to go bankrupt so the fat cat corrupt unions can force a state into bankruptcy.
Sad.
More left wing
What can I do for me and what do you taxpayers owe me next.
If it passed Ohio will have to take drastic measures which the loons will go nuts with.
If it fails the loons will be going nuts because they got their tax payer handout taken away.
Funny people mention the money being spent in Ohio, Acorn and all the unions have spent billions in Ohio to find ways to get people out to vote who cannot even spell the word union let alone sign their name with an X.
Union Busting Bill In Ohio Expected To Be Heavily Defeated
"Voters in Ohio are poised to vote no on a referendum on Gov. John Kasich’s (R) anti-union bill, according to a new poll. Public Policy Polling (PPP) found that 59 percent of voters oppose SB 5, while just 36 percent plan to approve it during Tuesday’s election."
also because of the governor's attack on the middle class:
"Gov. Kasich’s own approval numbers have tanked since he has signed the bill. He was elected by a 55-37 margin over former Democratic Gov. Ted Strickland, but now only 33 percent of voters approve of the job he’s doing, making him one of the most disliked governors in the nation."
Looks like another win for the middle class over the fascist right

Not what I've been hearing, and it was reported just tonight on the news that it was expected to pass.
And, it had better pass, or Ohio taxpayers are going to have to foot the bill for the union fat cats, who make twice what private sector employees make doing similar work.
Tax payers can no longer afford to feather the nest of public employees, who are paid out of TAX DOLLARS. The retirement benefits of public employees are an outrage, and they can retire after only 20 years!
If Issue 2 does not pass, Ohio will have no choice but to cut jobs.
Sorry, I cannot afford your cushy salary and benefits package. You can damn well learn to live the way the rest of us do. ON A BUDGET!!!

The left always says the "rich" should pay their fair share. Well then, start paying your fair share, you union fat cats! You can afford to pay more. You have more than I do. Pay up!
