Kinda rep does this poll have? Right leaning? Left Leaning? Center? Poll accuracy from the past?

Need these points when bringing this up today with co-workers.

Hart Research has worked with Dems. But I would say it is worth a look at to see the trends in the VA polling. Fox and Rasmussen are the only current polls showing a Romney lead in VA right now. Zogyby/Newsmax and Purple Strategies show a tie. PPP , WashPost, and Mellman Group (who predicted Harry Reid winning in 2010) show a lead along with this poll.
