... news cycle pushing it or something pushing it.

It could be like the one factor M$M got wrong when it comes to registration and party affiliation being opposite. Dems in some states register to vote in GOP primary elections to get the nuttiest person to lose the general but don't vote GOP in the general.

Yeah, somethings not right with 5 - 10 point swings in days like that

And condemn them when they don't. The very same polls with the very same methodology. Funny how that works.
