[In head-to-head matchups, Romney leads Obama among registered voters in swing states by a single percentage point, 47% to 46%.

But the commander in chief is ahead against Perry in those states by a five point margin, 49% to 44%.

And against Cain, Obama narrowly win by three points, 48% to 45%. ]

I find it hard to believe that Obama is polling this well in swing states. It is much better than I expected with poll numbers as low as his. Why does Obama poll better than his approval numbers?

The polls are of registered voters, not likely voters. The former stat usually skews toward the leftists.
