CNN Poll: OH Stays in Obama Column After Debate
Romney may have gotten a brief "mini bounce" because the President played it cool last week,
but the President still has the majority of the toss up states. And Romney can't win without them.

" President Obama retained the lead in a big prize on the electoral map, Ohio, according to a poll released Tuesday by CNN.
Obama leads Romney 51 percent to 47 percent in the Buckeye State, a smaller advantage than the president has had in the state during the last few weeks of polling. But with Romney surging nationally on a good performance in the first presidential debate, the CNN numbers contradict four other polls fielded after the event that showed the race within 1 point, and Romney leading three of them.
CNN pointed to the gender gap as the reason for Obama's lead -- the president is up 22 points with women, while Romney leads men by 14 points. Obama also leads 50 percent to Romney's 46 percent among independent voters."
