I'd like to point out that all these results but Ohio represent an IMPROVEMENT for Romney from Quinnipiac's last results. Remember last months Q polls of OH, FL, and WI and how well Obama did in them?

WI LAST MONTH
Obama 51%
Romney 45%
So 49-47% this month represents a fair improvement

FL LAST MONTH
Obama 51%
Romney 45%
So 49-46% this month represents a fair improvement

OH Last Month
Obama - 50%
Romney 44%
So Ohio has seen no change since last month.


Party ID on that Wisconsin Poll is D+4. 2008 exit poll data indicated turnout in WI was D+6 that year. 2012 Recall turnout was R+1. PPP's recent WI poll sample was R+2.

Party ID on that Florida poll is utterly bizarre. It's D+6, which is even more DEM friendly than 2008 turnout (which was D+3).

Party ID on that Ohio poll is D+8. It was D+8 in 2008.


Also, Guardian poll analyzer Harry Enten notes this:

At least Yahoo notices the polling improvement for Romney. Here's the headline: Obama holds lead in Ohio, but slips in Florida and Wisconsin, poll shows

You must have missed the part where Obama slipped in two states (Fl and WI), and stayed the same in one (OH).
