Yup. Obama was suppose to lose Colorado last year according to Quinnipiac.
That poll was done right after the 1st presidential debate, in which Obama sucked.
The debate was on Oct. 3 and the poll was done Oct. 4-9.
Besides, a poll done a month before the election does not say much.
Quinnipiac's final polls in other states were very good.
Quinnipiac has also been releasing some questionable polls like Tancredo tied with Hickenlooper.
Tied yes, but tied at like 39 or 40% and that is basically Tom got in 2010, plus a point or two. I don't think Tancredo can get above 45% in Colorado in any environment. He would need a left wing third party to split the vote and that isn't going to happen. What the situation does provide, is an invitation for someone more credible to dive in and run like Penry (I haven't been following him lately, so if he has done an Edwards or something I wouldn't know), or perhaps Suthers. Either could win statewide and either would have won in 2010 in my opinion.
