That could indicated momentum, right? What about back 4 months ago when Ron Paul was polling at a statistical zero? Many folks back then said “he’s polling at zero, why is he running?”

A lot of smart people are obsessing over polls. Both pro- and contra-Ron Paul. Something needs to change about this.

Oct 15-21 is what, about a week after they started running them? I certainly hope that’s the case; that would suggest that a week’s worth of advertising is enough for a significant bump, and there’s weeks more in the pipeline.
But like Bob says, we’ll want further confirmation. The bump to 4% in the latest Rasmussen poll does suggest some movement in other places, too…

It was conducted after the other polls and I think it was the 1st poll conducted after the Paul campaign started its radio ads. It is a big jump for the start of an ad campaign, to tell what’s really going on I’d like to see previous polls done by the same company (and their methodology) or the next round of polling done by all the companies.
