Obama is ahead, but it's all within the margin of error for 99% of polls out there. A couple of them actually had him up 6 or 7 points over the past couple of weeks. These are outliers compared to the vast majority of polls take, and the race is only going to get tighter as the debates start and the election gets closer.
Basically this election is going to come down to whether or not the Romney camp can hold it together and put Obama on the defensive, because between whats been going on overseas and the gloomy economic news over the last several months, it hasn't exactly been a rosy picture for Obama. Yet all you hear about in the media is Romney and his many "gaffes".
All you heard for 2 weeks straight in the media was Romney's "47%" comment, while the situation in Syria deteriorated further, the jobs numbers continued to suck hard, and for the first time since 1979 a US Ambassador was killed due to a pre-planned attack that the White House conveniently blamed on the anti-Islam film before finally admitting more than a week later that yes the attack was planned and yes it was an intelligence failure on their part.
But thanks to the Obama water-carrying media constantly focusing on Romney's "gaffes" (which pale in comparison to anything Joe Biden says anytime he opens his mouth), he's still up in the polls after all that.
