The Ohio poll was +9 D, the PA one looks more solid but who knows - either could still go either way two weeks out.
By 2 points according to RCP. Big deal.
Yeah? He was ahead by 2 points in the polls in Ohio in 2008,
and won by 4.

two points is well within most MoE, what's hard to believe is a poll is a poll that has Obama up by a larger margin than he won by four years ago.
