37. Except that RCP skips Edwards in some polls, just read the link you provided
That sort of fucks up any real methodology they might have used. RCP is crap by the way. They use just about anybodies polls and treat them all equal, regardless of proprietary or published poll breakdowns. The rolling average is a good idea, if you ask the same question each month, using the same exact methodology each time. Rolling averages with different polls is bullshit. You wouldnt do that with your kids medicine, so why now.

In fact RCP shows that not all pollsters even include Edwards, now thats fucked up, as it skews RCP's entire effort.
