For those freaking out over state polls - compare to 2012. Go to:

http://www.electoral-vote.com/

Scroll over each state. It tells you where the state is now and where it was the same time in 2012. And remember that in 2012 Romney ran a professional campaign and had a good ground game. Clinton is going to win a lot of these battleground states, even some where she may be down several points right now. I would include Florida, Co, NC, NV in that assessment and maybe AZ and Ohio.
