2. It's Skewed by the Newsweek outlier.
Since Sig. Lines aren’t working now: I support Obama.

4. I understand that :) Still she is not under 40 if you don't take Newsweek into consideration.

6. Without the two outliers (Newsweek and AP-Ipsos) the result is almost the same!
(50+49+50+51+51)/5 = 50.2
(40+41+40+41+38)/5 = 40.0

Obama lead = +10.2
