A new poll released late Tuesday shows President Obama with a slim advantage over Mitt Romney in the critical battleground state of Florida, suggesting that the state is not slipping away from the GOP nominee, as another survey last week suggested.
Obama leads Romney in the poll, conducted by the Suffolk University Political Research Center in Boston for Miami-based WSVN-TV, 48 percent to 45 percent. Three percent of likely voters chose one of the 10 other candidates on the ballot, each of whom was offered to respondents as an option. Four percent were undecided. Obama's lead is within the poll's margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.

Florida is a must-win as is OH, VA, IA, CO, and NM. The path to Republican victory is becoming ever more steep. Demographics is destiny. Obama has crafted a policy of catering to every imaginable “interest group” and this appears to be a winning formula for the Rats. Sad but true. Romney has to thread the needle. He misses one key state and by 10:00 p.m. election night we may have to endure the nightmarish words of Wolf Blitzer: “CNN can now call FL and OH for Obama and Obama has been re-elected to a second term” God Forbid.
I’m thinking the “indie” number is made up ..that’s pretty high
If the Real Clear Politics electoral map is correct, then Romney needs every single swing state electoral point available, and obongo is only one electoral point from the 270 points needed. It will be a tough fight.
So let me get this straight - this poll outpolled democrats by 5% AT 42%, IN A STATE WHERE THEY HAVE NOT GONE OVER 37%? Thats yet another BS poll.
I simply don’t believe FL is in play.
