Polling had shown Obama with a sizeable lead over all candidates in Colorado, so its relieving that Romney is at least competetive there.

Newt is substantive enough that his favorables are improving as he gets more airtime.  and being down by 8 points as a challenger while the economy is entering a recession 11 months before an election is great position to be in for a substantive candidate.

Both types of spin aside, this really isn't a good poll for Obama.  It really underscores the need for him to keep FL and OH in play all they way through to the election.

This is a great.  It shows a state that was once solidly Republican being competitive despite the economy.

Colorado hasn't been solidly Republican since the 80's.

Clinton pulling out one win with Perot taking some vote from Bush means nothing.  Remember Clinton also won Arizona, Montana and Georgia once.

Remember, the polling underestimated the Dems margin in Colorado and Nevada in both 2008, 2010. The language barrier is probably one of the reasons

I'm going to stick my neck out and say you've got that backwards.

It won't be competitive unless Romney is nominated.

The state that really matters is Virginia - not Colorado. That is just how the electoral vote numbers add up.  If Romney carries Virginia, he can afford to drop Nevada, NM, and Colorado, along with losing Wisconsin and Iowa. Mittens is lucky that he is so strong in New Hampshire!  Smiley

Well, why do you think Ohio is any more 'set' than Virginia?

History.  I find it hard to believe Romney will carry Virginia, but lose Ohio.

I think he's a little iffy on both, honestly.  But anyway historically it was Virginia which was more Republian than Ohio.

The CO GOP has just fallen completely apart in the last 10 years.  The 2010 Senate Race was the latest GOP bust there.
