Some disheartening news this morning:
Ohio: Romney 47%, Obama 46% (We Ask America) (last poll was 48-40 Obama on 7/24)
Florida: Romney 49%, Obama 46% (We Ask America) (last poll was 49-46 Obama on 9/16)
Virginia: Romney 49%, Obama 48% (Rasmussen) (last poll was 49-48 Obama on 9/13)
Virginia: Romney 48%, Obama 45% (We Ask America) (last poll was 49-46 Obama on 9/17)
So not good. There are Republican leaning polls - but they had Obama leading last time.
7:44 AM PT: The RAND tracker actually went slightly UP since the debates. Go figure:

7:47 AM PT: Rasmussen OH just released and has Obama AHEAD: (albeit by a point)
Ohio: Obama 50%, Romney 49% (Rasmussen) (last poll was 47-46 Obama on 9/12)
So both gained in that poll. It's a race again.
7:53 AM PT: Josh Marshal on these polls:
A couple notes on this. We Ask America released polls of Ohio, Florida and Virginia today with Mitt Romney holding small leads in each. They’re a Republicanish pollster. But their number have been more reactive and bouncy than consistently Republican. Colorado moved based on a poll released by a Republican pollster. So the numbers suggest movement back in Romney’s direction. But so far the data comes from pollsters with a somewhat iffy (as to accuracy) record.
