I doubt that many of those Dean supporters are going to change their minds at the last minute, though I do expect the final tally to be closer than this.
10. There are so many factors, time of day, areas chosen to call
Many people have caller ID and privacy manager like myself. If even if I get an identified call, if I don't know who's calling I don't answer me phone and certainly wouldn't pick up for something like this. In front of a supermarket perhaps and conducted over several days in order to produce a varied and larger sample size.
6. No I wouldn't I have a problem with sample size and technique
I don't pay that much attention to polls like this, I'm content to wait for the real outcome. I certainly wouldn't cite such a poll as evidence of support for the candidate of my choice. But then again I happened to be very objective in my approach to information.
Dean is approaching 50% in some of these NH polls in a crowded field. Note too, that this poll was conducted thru Monday so it included two days after Saddam was captured--when Dean's campaign was supposed to collapse.
