Given Obama's approvals in nationwide polls being something like 45-47, this seems way too heavily Republican.

-16 approval may be a slight stretch, but I certainly wouldn't call this a junk poll. I don't see what's so weird about Romney leading by 4 in a swing state, though I could understand why pbrower won't post it, since he hates any poll that makes Obama look bad.

This is the sort of approval rating one would expect in Alabama or Oklahoma. This is far below any recent nationwide poll. Florida is about R+2, and I don't see any reason to believe that the President's approval is 40% nationwide. Just check the recent Rasmussen polls.
You wouldn't expect Obama to have strong approvals in Tennessee either, yet you include a poll with Obama leading there. You have no problem counting questionable polls that have Obama leading - it's the ones he's losing in you refuse to count.

I agree with tmth; both of these polls are ignorable, just like Zogby and Rasmussen.
