RCP's problem is how it gives equal weight to even the crappiest polls, such as Gravis or We Ask America, two Republican astroturf pollers. There aren't any similar shill organizations on the Democratic side. For example, PPP may be funded by Democrats, but compared to other pollsters, it's been reporting numbers this cycle slightly less favorable to Obama.
Nate Silver does it better, diong a weighted average according to poll size and past bias of that pollster.
