What, the Democrats overplaying their hand, never. There is one thing to keep in mind when the actual election dates draws closer when it comes to polls. Even polls that purposely skew results have to maintain a more realistic result as a poll is judged on its effectiveness in predicting the actual voting outcome. No one gives any credibility to a poll that is consistently wrong.
