49-45%. republican governor bob mcdonald said he's not worried. >> no. it's 90 days out. when you look where governor romney was four months ago he was down six to eight points after a bruising primary season in the republican field. so we think he's doing much better. it's essentially a dead heat. >> virginia is just one presidential battleground. today candidates campaigned in swing states. mitt romney was in iowa. president obama is in colorado where he's trailing in one poll. steve handlesman has the latest. >> reporter: colorado is the key western swing state won by president obama in 2008. he came in today trailing by five points in a new poll. he touted health care reform, using the republican term. >> the affordable care act, also known as obamacare.
