Poll Results in Swing States

If you are going over polls with your students, and who isn't at some point, here is today's from the NYTimes.  If has the current results and if you hit the arrow by each state, the previous one.  It also has a number of questions and the poll results for each of them.  The most telling result is that the people in the swing states see Obama as doing well enough on the economy and those numbers are somewhat identical to his over approval in those states as are his approval ratings.  Since political scientists say those are the two key statistics, obviously this  is a dangerous sign for Romney, but with three debates and two more job reports before election day, there is still time for the challenger.
