Okay, on to the good news (and some bad):

St. Cloud State: Obama Leads in Minnesota

A St. Cloud State University poll in Minnesota shows Sen. Barack Obama leads Sen. John McCain, 42% to 37%.

Meanwhile, the U.S. Senate race "continues to display the volatility seen in polls throughout the season" with Sen. Norm Coleman (R-MN) retaking the lead over challenger Al Franken (D), 36% to 27%, with Independence Party candidate Dean Barkley getting 16%.

Next:

Research 2000: Obama Grabs Lead in Missouri

A new Research 2000 poll in Missouri shows Sen. Barack Obama edging Sen. John McCain, 48% to 47%.

"Obama's lead is his first in Missouri against McCain in any Research 2000 polls this year. The previous poll, in late September, showed McCain with a one-point edge."

Update: A new Mason-Dixon poll in Missouri has McCain beating out Obama by one point, 46% to 45%.

Hey, I tried! They sneaked in that last one at the last minute. Either way, it's a toss-up.
