Chris Cillizza says — and I agree with him — that current polls for who might be our next president should not be regarded as anything more than snapshots of a given moment. Note the line…
If polling done at this point in the 2008 race was right, we would have had a general election fight between Hillary Clinton and Rudy Giuliani. And, we didn't.
And no one disagrees the current polls are largely meaningless. They just don't act like they think they're largely meaningless.
