No, it's really not.

F'rnstance, both polls mentioned here automatically do not poll anyone who doesn't have, and answer during the day, a landline telephone.

How many folks under the age of 50 do you know who are home to answer their phone during a weekday?

Poll demographics are all screwed up.

Remember- it's in the interest of the media to make this seem as close as possible, so that more folks will watch the coverage, so that they can sell more advertising.

Take a look @ total #'s of individual donors to each campaign, volunteer hours logged, in-kind donations, registration #'s- it's not all that close.
