16. You said recalls are hard to poll, based on 1 instance ( You hoped I forgot the Walker recall)

No responsible person would reach the hasty, evidencee-free conclusion that a certain kind of contest is hard to poll, based on one election.
And then came to understate man of all understatements: "There aren't many statewide recalls". Dude, you cited one. "Not many"? How insightful. But then, you said recalls at hard to poll. That was a horrible analysis.

The worst part is that you remember very well the 2013 Walker recall, but you've been silent about it, hoping that I didn't remember. Bad news for you, I do remember.
And so do you. You are familiar with RCP, so you must know that the poll average was 6.7%, and Walker one by 6.8%. Therefore the polling average was extremely accurate.

I want your help picking a pumpkin for Halloween. You only see the pretty ones.
