One of these is not like the others... |

Below are the (+/-) spreads of all polls used for today's data point on RCP's graph of President Obama's Job Approval. With the names removed from each pollster's spread, can you figure out which one is Rasmussen's?
+2 +2 -13 +5 +1 +1 +7
There seems to be a disconnect somewhere...

3. Scotty Rasmussen produces a single accurate poll every four years |
|
That's a feature of his polling methodology.
Oh, and that one accurate poll is the only one that doesn't matter when it comes to a narrative.

5. Or he mysteriously stops polling races two weeks before the actual vote |
|
As has happened with quite a few primaries this year.

6. I think we've gone way beyond "House Effect" with Scotty |
|
I don't even think you can make an argument for his impartiality anymore.
