PPP (the polling people we trust):
Connecticut isn't a place that would go on anybody's list of swing states but Barack Obama is in a statistical tie with Mitt Romney there, leading only 47-45.They go on to show that he's much weaker across New England than he was against McCain in 08, and that this is evidence of a larger problem of his unpopularity nationally.
Obama's poor showing in Connecticut is mostly a function of his own unpopularity. Despite having won it by 23 points in 2008.
