Has RP down a point to 5% nationwide.

Don't look at me, I'm just the messenger. But I think their methods are suspect.

Rasmussen's methods are a bit suspect, but not because of a 1% shift in the numbers. Remember, this is all rounded to the nearest whole number, and there is a pretty big margin of error. Also, in general, automated phone polls are less accurate than normal phone polls. So don't worry about it - moving from 6% to 5% is irrelevant.

Ain't that the truth.

Considering how even the "frontrunners" are having trouble reaching 20 or 25%, I'd like to see these polls done with bigger and better samples to keep the margin of error from being equal to over a third of the support for most candidates.

I know its normal variation and all, but I was hoping the first poll after Nov 5 would provide a slight boost.

Ok, now I see. You were just trying to explain how you are a dick. Put down the bong and google Rasmussen next time, loser.

You sure about that? If that is the case, why does this list him at 6%:
