McCain gave up on MI. Obama is up by 16 points post debate in MI according to Qpac:
* Colorado: Obama leads 52 - 43 percent pre-debate and 52 - 43 percent post debate;
* Michigan: Obama is up 55 - 37 percent pre debate and 54 - 38 percent post debate;
* Minnesota: Obama leads 51 - 43 percent pre-debate and 51 - 40 percent post debate;
* Wisconsin: Obama leads 51 - 43 percent pre-debate and 54 - 37 percent post debate.
McCain is still spending resources in MN and WI, but it doesn`t look like he`s even close in those states. 11 points in MN post debate, and 17 points in WI post debate. McCains support among independents have "collapsed" according to Peter Brown from the polling institute.
Voters in ALL 4 states said Obama did a better job in the debate, the margin was higher than 30 points in all 4 states.
Another interesting point is that Obama is ahead with men in WI, MI and CO (its tied in MN). He is winning women with huge margins in all 4 states
