It has nothing to do with "curves." Look into the calculations for
prediction rate. Those can't be fudged. They either got it right or
they didn't. If you looked into it further, you'd see that the bias
rates are similarly matters of objective calculation.

There is no argument with those ratings, Martin. You either understand
them and the hard facts from which they're calculated, or you don't.
Gunner was just bull****ting. He has no idea what he was talking
about.

You bull****ter. Once again, you weigh in on something you know
nothing about.

Monmouth is tied for the highest-rated pollster in the country. Its
538 rating is A+, with a +0.6 D bias and an 85% prediction rate:

There are some things in life for which you can't just bull**** and
bluster your way through. This is one of them.
