Your correct.

I remember watching my first real political debates and polls (For Clinton on his second term when he was in trouble and then for Bush after, yes I'm young haha) and the polls had Gore winning by at least 10-15% in some.

Well, of course THAT was amiss. I think it's just for ratings. Really we would all have better results if we all stripped naked, covered ourselves in flour and let the wind guid us to who is going to win haha.

We'll never know until the end.
