There are 106,000,000 Minorities in America.

Gay and lesbian lifestyles, without question, are not respected by the GOP.
Womens rights (right or wrong) are being threatened by the GOP.
Minorities make up the larger amount of poor in the US.

So when you consider that polls are less likely to take place in or with poor and minority Americans, and more and more have came out to support the Current President in the past and predicted future, I would surmise that the polls are incorrect and that Obama is farther ahead than the polls would suggest.

NOTE: The above is in my opinion and only put here as food for thought.

I am just a Golfingnut and I approve this message.

Many are probably more prone to vote based on what family, friends, co-workers, fellow church goers, etc., think would be my guess rather than due to where they fit in some census like categories.

All these political ads also probably have some impact.
