In Ohio Poll, Obama Approval Rating Sinks With Undecideds

After multiple Ohio polls last week found President Barack Obama's lead expanding to new highs, the Democratic-leaning Public Policy Polling brought those numbers back to earth, giving Obama a four-point, 49-45 lead over Republican Mitt Romney in the state. 
But for Obama, the greatest concern should come in his approval rating among undecided voters that are going to swing the balance in Ohio. Just 13 percent of undecided voters approve of the job he is doing as president, while a startling 65 percent disapprove. 
That doesn't mean all — or even most — of those who disapprove will swing to Romney's side. PPP Director Tom Jensen writes that only 26 percent of those same undecided voters view Romney favorably, compared with 37 percent unfavorably. But it could mean a much tighter race down the stretch of the campaign.
