In their new Poll of Wisconsin, WP and Abcnews report that Bush is leading 53 - 43.

But later on in the article, they talk about Party ID.
"In this poll in Wisconsin, by contrast, 35 percent of likely voters are Republicans, 29 percent Democrats. "
"Ultimate loyalties on Election Day remain to be seen; in the 2000 exit poll more Wisconsin voters were Democrats than Republicans, by a five-point margin, and in 1996 it was about even, +1 Democrat. Wisconsin has voted Democratic in the last four presidential elections; Al Gore won the state by 5,708 votes in 2000."
Why don't these dolts just control for Party ID? What makes them think that Party ID shifted in this state by 10 points towards Republicans?
