Two weeks out from the general election in 2006 Betty Montgomery was leading in the polls. The NRA then came out with their endorsement, Marc Dann was their man. Two weeks later Dann won, big shift in the numbers what an upset. Now here we are 2 weeks away from the presidential. NRA endorsing McCain Palin. Let us see what happens. Funniest thing.

Suffolk does actually provide the entire call sheet, which leaves me with the following questions. They had a 100% response rate? Really? Does a 45%/31% Democrat to Republican breakdown make sense?
