That's up from a 3 point gap there over the weekend.And in Colorado, a longtime Republican stronghold where McCain has held the advantage for months, the new CNN poll of polls shows Obama on top by 6 percentage points, 50-44 percent. Earlier this week, Obama held a 5-point lead over McCain. These icons link to social bookmarking sites where readers can share and discover new web pages.
