 Mitt Romney lags in swing state polls, according to the Washington Post article about the polls:


Quote from the article:
“This is an electorate that pretty much is now all about, from the campaign standpoint,  mobilization. Persuasion is going to take a second seat right now,” said Lee Miringoff, director of the Marist College Institute for Public Opinion, in an interview with NBC News.  “This is about getting your base out, not about appealing to a shrinking middle.”

So all that money that Mitt Romney's campaign and the GOP PACs are going to spend between now and November?   Unlikely to make much of a difference.
