OBAMA LEADS ROMNEY IN FLORIDA, OHIO AND VIRGINIA

Pres. Barach Obama leads Mitt Romney in Florida, Virginia and Ohio.  That according to a recent NBC poll, reports Bloomberg News.

Jonathan D. Salant writes from Washington:

"An NBC News/Wall Street Journal survey released yesterday of likely voters in the swing states of Florida, Ohio andVirginia showed Obama ahead in each race. Recent national polls by CNN and Gallup following last week’s Democratic National Convention also put Obama in the lead.

"The NBC/Journal poll gave Obama a 49 percent to 44 percent edge over Romney in both Florida and Virginia, and a 50 percent to 43 percent edge in Ohio. No Republican has ever won the White House without carrying Ohio."
