4. I am new to the Daily Kos poll....

how reliable is it? After all it is a liberal blog. I know that I do not trust a poll from FOX or any other poll commissioned by a right wing organization.

Don't get me wrong, I love the Daily Kos but I am just not sure if their poll can be relied on anymore than a poll put out by a conservative website.

Kos is paying for it

It is a Research 2000 poll for Kos. Kos has no saying into the methodology. All internals are available unlike most of the tracking polls.

7. It Is No More Or (Less) Reliable Than Other Poll

A poll inluding this one, imho, deserves to be seen as legitimate until it is proven as illegitimate...
