Great story on 'Wireless' voters
I am not sure how I got here, but this was really interesting new blog:

Mobile Phones

Arianna Huffington, a frequent critic of political polling, is weighing in once again with an indictment of the "downright dangerous impact that polls are having on our democracy," including an assertion about mobile phones that has gotten a lot of attention lately (here, here and here):

Pollsters never call cell phones - of which there are now close to 170 million. And even though most cell phone users also have a hard line, a growing number don't - especially young people, an underpolled and hard-to-gauge demographic that could easily turn out to be the margin of difference in this year's race.

Is she right?
