We’ve talked about adding polling data, but the problem is that it’s hard to judge which polls are sufficiently credible — and because some states have very little polling activity, we don’t want to risk leaving people with an inaccurate impression. Plus, we value your time, Robert Niles, and we wouldn’t want to suck up too much of it. :-)

Of course, that would make this crack even more addictive to political junkies like me than it is already. Thanks, guys; thanks a lot. This is going to kill waaay too many hours of my days between now and November. ;-)
