For those who care, it found Hillary Clinton trouncing a distant-second Joe Biden on the Democratic side. For the GOP, Mike Huckabee has a razor-thin lead over a tight pack including Marco Rubio, Chris Christie, Rick Santorum, Jeb Bush, and Condi Rice. However, the real story was the almost universal reaction of angry, poll-saturated tweeters.

@gerrynic @ppppolls @aburnspolitico Insane. Take a week off, already. PLEASE.

We love sifting through polling data as much as anyone, but the critics are right. Give these poor people a few weeks of rest!
