Daily Kos Elections Polling Wrap: An abnormal amount of normality in Tuesday's polling

You know what was really aberrant about the polling that was released today?

The fact that, honestly, there was nothing about today's numbers that was all that aberrant. It is a very rare day, friends, when you get a pretty fair amount of polling, and none of it surprises you. No disappointments, but no pleasant surprises, either.

Today was like going golfing, and making par eighteen times.

On to the numbers:
