So, polling from 4th-11th October so these be old but here a few of them

Colorado 48-45 to Obama
Florida 48-47 to Obama
Iowa 50-46 to Obama
Nevada 50-45 to Obama
North Carolina 49-48 to Romney
Virginia 46-45 to Obama
Wisconsin 51-47 to Obama
Ohio 50-46 to Obama

Worth noting that YouGov have a good track record in the UK and are a well established company. They have been polling in the USA in each election cycle since 2004 and as mentioned before had a good track record in 2010, particularly in getting the races in Colorado and Washington right (which both Rass and PPP got wrong) and also called Nevada correctly. Their methodology may be innovative, but it is transparent.

Pretty encouraging in the underlined 'firewall'.  How old are these?

They were taken over the period of the 4th-11th October which was not the strongest period for Obama. They last polled the same states in September using Registered Voters and applied a Likely Voters screen for this round.
