Fire sale
There's a fire sale today at Chrisishardcore.
Here's the New Hampshire Spreadsheet I've been using. It includes some graphs. Try your own hand, check my math, whatever. Of course, if ARG or Zogby would just release their one day numbers I wouldn't have to do this.
Wyeth Wire has done the same thing to Zogby that I've done to ARG. Check him out -- he's the premiere South Carolina blogger so his site should be heating up Wednesday morning.
Update: Gallup's latest one day numbers look a lot like my ARG-influenced estimates.

Chrishardcore,
Congrats on your work.
I am not clear about why Dean is so down on other polls. Also, how come JFK is championing himself as womens right supporter and no response from Dean campaign? I want Dean to win NH and so I want to figure out how to catch JFK's spins, lies, and exagerrations.

Thanks for posting that. It is great to see the analysis, and play around with the baselines and see how it changes the findings. What I realize is that a few days without change in the polls allows you to set a very reliable baseline and have a lot more confidence in the data.
Of course all of this could be blown out of the water if ARG has sample sizes that are significantly different day to day (which I doubt) or they are weighting their data (which might happen, although I doubt it).
Anyway, great stuff.
