President Obama leads Mitt Romney among likely voters in Ohio and Florida - and has a double-digit lead in Pennsylvania - according to a Quinnipiac University/CBS News/New York Times poll released this morning.

The poll, conducted from July 24-30, shows Mr. Obama leading his presumptive Republican challenger 53 percent to 42 percent in Pennsylvania. The 11-point lead results largely from independents, who favor the president by 22 points, and women, who favor the president by 24 points.

Mr. Obama holds a six-point lead in Ohio, 50 percent to 44 percent, a state where he holds a campaign event later today. His lead here is also due in large part to women, who back him by a 21-point margin. Romney leads by ten points among Ohio men, and seven points among Ohio whites.

In Florida, Mr. Obama also holds a six point lead, 51 percent to 45 percent. He holds a small lead among both men and women and a 19-point lead among Hispanics, while Romney leads by double-digits among whites and voters age 65 and above.

Your right, he got his come upns though. He is the problem we have, people like that may represent their districts but when they get to DC they then represent all of us. Murtha was not my representative (until he got to DC)

Issues that Obama has disappointed his early followers? Economy, energy - and have seen anger - with the overreach / Marxism they didn’t believe he would actually practice.

[Mr. K]

And you believe those polls?

10% more democrats APPROVE now than they did last time?

Look at the sampling data- they are oversampling democrats by over 10% in some of these polls - and Obama still can’t break +6

And you believe those polls?

Certainly not.

...they are oversampling democrats by over 10% in some of these polls

That was my point.
