1. I've been asking myself the same question

:shrug:

[Tatiana]

2. Never, that I can recall. Hillary has always led in the IN polls. n/t

3. MSNBC said for 2 days. The Clintons say this b/c Obama's camp had IN as a 5 point win back in Feb.

4. go to realclearpolitics click IN, scroll down. He had a combined

poll advantage of 5% for a period before PA.

6. Thanks. I was wondering about this. I always thought they were pretty much neck and neck in IN.

5. There were a couple bogus polls, but he was never going to win that state.

Ever.

7. Only in a few outliers. nt

[H2O Man]

8. Reportedly for 3 days.

I'm not sure when they were.

9. Early in 2008 he was ahead.

Check out the Pollster graphs. (I don't have a link to them, but I've seen them).

10. Yes... he was up by 6 in ONE poll in February. Not a lot to hang your hat on.

Clinton has led every poll since except for the Zogby outlier.

11. thanks, i thought it was bullshit.

polls ring my bullshit detector more and more.

12. aaarrrrrgggghhhh. they are amplifying this crap today.

she was behind by 10% in indiana. she never thought she would win indiana. she did better than expected in NC.
argh.

[MadBadger]

13. After PA, the polls were in the MOE, and even after Wright, they finished there

[onenote]

14. a couple of polls over the past six weeks had obama up by a couple of points

And taking into account the MOE, that actually probably was a reasonable forecast.

On the other hand, over that same period, the overwhelming majority of polls had HRC up in Indiana by a signficant margin -- often 8-10 points and, even a week ago, by 12 points.
