RCP - Curious...

So I'm just throwing this out there so others can watch along with me to see what happens.

Right after the debate RCP included a Wahington Times/JZ Analytics poll that showed the race a tie nationally. So they accept the validity of the polling organization.

Today there is a JZAnalytics/Newsmax poll showing Obama +3. It has been on the Pollster totals for some time now. ( http://elections.huffingtonpost.com/pollster/polls/jz-analytics-newsmax-15776 )

It has not appeared on RCP yet. I'm waiting to see if it does or if RCP tries to pretend it doesn't exist. They couldn't ignore the ABC news poll obviously but let's see if they try and get away with ignoring this one. If they include it they have to show Obama ahead in the top line average.
