Real Clear Politics
—a right-wing site—is still one of the web's best daily catalogues of political news, opinion, and most of all, polling data.  They regularly produce an average of all active polls of any upcoming political race.  Below is today's spread on Obama in New Hampshire.  It lists the numbers for each organization, and then averages them all together at the top.  See for yourself:

Not only is Obama leading in 6 out of 7 of all available polls heading into this Tuesday, he is averaging as the winner by 7 points.  Oh, boy... 

I think I need some bad news to take the edge off all this optimism.  I am really not used to it.  Anybody got anything for me out there?  Bad breakup?  A beloved one carried off by a twister?
