Short Diary. Didnt see a diary on this but Fox has a new poll out that is DEVASTATING to Romney in OHIO. If Romney can't win OHIO, HE WILL LOSE. This poll has got to be super news to the obama campaign. If Obama can prevent Romney from winniing OHIO, he will be in the white house for 4 more years. NO REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE HAS WON THE PRESIDENCEY WITHOUT OHIO!!!
ROMNEY IS TOAST!

Some sample internals
The pollster has Barack Obama leading him, 49%-42%, in the piece de resistance of battleground states -- Ohio.
a. Obama's approval rating is 50%/46%. That shows that Romney has some room to grow (he only picks up 42% in the horserace and, theoretically, should get something more in the 46% region.
Huge gender gap. Men pick Romney by 10%, but women support Obama by a massive 23% margin.
e. Union voters back Obama by 16%, while non union households ALSO prefer Obama, 48%-44%. Romney needs to reverse that last result substantially to win.
Here's the part where Romney is in a heap of trouble. Obama wins on the economy and jobs, 50%-43%. If Romney isn't going to win there, he's not going to win anywhere (notably, though, indies favor Romney by 4% on the question).
I won't say the fat lady is singing, but she is walking towards the stage. Early voting begins in some states in 2 WEEKS!!! If Obama can get a jump on early voting, he will coast to victory on November 6.
