major poll. A result like that, which is then used here as the basis for arguing that there is a very recent major countertrend, is clearly an outlier.

Usually, when polls are in substantial agreement (eg HRC was leading Obama by double digits for months and months prior to Tsunami Tuesday, and Obama has since closed the gap and perhaps even gained a modest lead in the last few weeks) those results are accurate. To base one's reasoning about the campaign on a single "outlier" poll is not good reasoning.
