it is just going to be a grueling finish IMO, and well within reach of Mitt.

On the independents thing, seems to me everybody has their own independents. Perhaps my independents can kick your independents ass on any given Tuesday, I don't know.

The internal polling (and external) clearly indicated to POTUS that he needed to get back in the ring.

I strongly favor the view that Team Obama is as good at granular polling as anything in the modern age. Their behavior speaks towards their data.

Colorado voters give Obama narrow victory in debate

PPP's post debate snap poll in the critical swing state of Colorado finds a narrow victory for Barack Obama, 48/44.

Perhaps more importantly independents think that the President won by a 58/36 margin. 

The debate enhanced both candidates' images with Colorado voters. 40% now say they have a more positive opinion of Obama than they did before the debate, to 36% who see him less favorably. Mitt Romney actually does slightly better on that front with 44% of voters saying they see him more positively now to 35% with a less charitable opinion.

The debate isn't likely to make a big difference in the state of the race in Colorado. 37% of voters say it made them more likely to vote for Obama, 36% say it made them more likely to vote for Romney, and 27% say it didn't make a difference to them either way. We will continue calling Colorado voters on Wednesday and then release a full Presidential poll for the state on Thursday.

Obama was overwhelmingly seen as the winner of the debate among Hispanic voters (61/32) and lost just narrowly to Romney among whites (47/45). Obama was seen as a narrow victor among men (48/43) and women (49/46) alike.
