The question was why USA Today, which has a pretty depressed rating comparatively, and not CNN or Ipsos or even the aggregate (since you were comparing it to the Gallup, which is different).
Basically the comment is that it was odd you didn't just use the most recent Gallup poll, and that even in not doing so you chose USA Today of all choices.

Suffolk (which is who handles USA Today's poll) is rated better and weighted higher then CNN / Ipsos.
USA Today's article happened to be the most recent and first article I stumbled upon, and I appended it with Gallup's polls. There's no underhanded motive to chose it, that's all it was.
