Could he still unseat the President?
The Democratic pollster, Public Policy Polling, has produced the latest national survey that has Romney with a 2% lead. This follows a Pew survey overnight with a Romney lead twice as large.
Other polls though, such as the latest Gallup daily tracking with a 5% Obama lead, are telling a different story.
What is happening? It really is quite hard to judge – though the current betting seems to be too much in favour of Obama.
