You should clarify your point with this tidbit from the poll:

But GOP strategists expect Election Day voters will be substantially higher in Iowa than this poll forecasts. Historically in Iowa, a higher percentage of Democrats than Republicans participates in early voting, but a higher percentage of Republicans turns out on Election Day. Republican nominee John McCain won more votes than Obama on Election Day in 2008. In his 2004 re-election bid, President George W. Bush also won more votes in Iowa on Election Day and won the state, overcoming Democrat John Kerry’s lead in early voting.

go ahead and put Iowa down as Red.

Nope if I thought Mitt would lose I'd say it. I just have yet to see convincing evidence Obama has this firewall folks are talking about. All the polls he is up in especially in Ohio anyone with half a brain could drive a mack truck through the holes in it. Plus +9Dem samples, EV gap closing Romney drawing large crowds. It doesn't take a genius to see where this is going.

I think Mitt will win.

Stop blaming Nevadas problems on Democrats. Nevada has only had Republican governors since 1999.

Stop trying to spin/deny every poll. GOP strategists - blah, blah, blah. The poll says what it says. The tortured logic of the GOP spinmeisters is both expected and irrelevant.

Willard hasn't been able to crack the 33-34% mark on Intrade today.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it's an indication of what we'll see on Tuesday.
