Pollsters earn money by keeping the results in the margin of error. It brings more traffic to the news sites if the race is very close. Nobody checks the accuracy of a poll from 3 months before an election.

If Obama or Romney was actually winning by 20%... the polls would still say it's a 3-5% spread. Look at actual data for a better indication. Employment numbers, new home buys, etc...
