Why Exit Polls Were Wrong--Another Theory

TCS: Tech Central Station - The Poll Vaulters:
""When a voter is confronted by a pollster in the service of the news media, therefore, what would a rational observer expect an unsatisfied media consumer to do? Would we expect an angry conservative to "spend" the time to help, without compensation, an industry that has by and large ignored that voter's attitudes regarding matters as emotionally charged as the selection of a president?
Clearly, this is an irrational expectation. I personally know numbers of people who have hung up on pollsters and gone out of their way to avoid people carrying clipboards.""
