It shows that VA is still close, which disproves the narrative that Romney has it wrapped up there.

And from what I can tell, isn't Obama's favorability in VA at 54% according to this Fox poll?

They're obviously trying to create a narrative that Romney is winning there.

How can they just so obviously exclude a poll like that?

The Fox News Poll is conducted under the joint direction of Anderson Robbins Research (D) and Shaw & Company Research (R). The poll was conducted by telephone with live interviewers

October 23-24, 2012, among a random sample of 1,203 Virginia registered voters (RV).

A subsample of 1,126 has been defined as likely voters (LV), with a margin of error of ± 3 percentage points.

Landline and cell phone telephone numbers were randomly selected for inclusion in the survey using a probability proportionate to size method, which means that phone numbers are proportionally representative of all regions across the state of Virginia.

Results based on the full sample have a margin of sampling error of ± 3 percentage points.
