How 'bout some battleground polls from RCP?

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/?state=nwa

Ohio 48.7 44.3 Obama +4.4
Virginia 49.6 45.1 Obama +4.5
Florida 48.8 46.3 Obama +2.5
N Hamp. 46.0 45.0 Obama +1.0
Iowa 48.3 44.3 Obama +4.0
Colorado 48.3 46.0 Obama +2.3
Wisconsin 51.5 43.7 Obama +7.8
Michigan 49.8 41.2 Obama +8.6
Penn. 49.0 41.0 Obama +8.0
Missouri 43.0 50.3 Romney +7.3
Nevada 49.0 44.8 Obama +4.2
North Car. 47.8 46.8 Obama +1.0

Just looking at these, If RMoney needs two of three from OH, VA or FL - that's going to be tough. Even red, red MO is not as bad as I thought....surprised NH is showing so close.

Romney is actually ahead by 105 points! But the liberal pollsters won't tell you that. I don't want to hear what is and isn't mathematically possible. Just tell me that romney is winning!

He won't win in MO or IN, but those two Senate seats would be huge.

We really need to shove it up McConnell's ass so he won't try the obstruct-everything strategy again.
