I think the real takeaway is that if we are going to pay attention to polls at all in this country, we need a lot more of them--and they need to be of higher quality.
The margin of error is what you need to be looking at (which, of course, is derived from sample size). And the margin of error, while bigger than it would be in a higher quality poll, is not all that bad.
