Obama leads McCain in key states of FL, OH, PA

Meanwhile, Obama received some good news when the latest surveys by Quinnipiac University found that he was leading McCain in Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania -- all considered key states in the November election.

According to the polls posted on the university's website, Obama is ahead 47% to 43% in Florida, 48% to 42% in Ohio and 52% to 40% in Pennsylvania.

During the Democratic primary season, Hillary Clinton won out over Obama in Pennsylvania and Ohio. She also took Florida, though neither she nor Obama campaigned in the Southern state because of a dispute over the timing of the primary.

SNIP

According to the Quinnipiac polls, Obama solidly leads McCain in the three states among women, while the fight to win the support of white men is too close to call. Obama trails McCain among white voters in Florida and Ohio, but is supported by more than nine out of 10 African Americans. Obama also is running up double-digit leads among young voters in each state.

Yeah, I know, they're JUST polls. But still. Looking good, Senator. Looking good!
