  - well, I've never put any stock in national polls  cali   Dec-11-07 05:07 PM   #19 
  - Most polls don't show a 30 point gap, they show a 10 point gap.  TheWraith   Dec-11-07 05:11 PM   #25 
  - Dean Never Led By Thirty Points This Close To Iowa  DemocratSinceBirth   Dec-11-07 05:16 PM   #29

  - RCP's average is 18.5 for Clinton's lead based on average of last 7 polls  rinsd   Dec-11-07 05:17 PM   #30
