DENVER -- Democrats may be confabbing here (and pumping lots of money into the area’s economy), but just-released Time/CNN polls of four key swing states show Barack Obama still has his work cut out for him in Colorado.

That’s the semi-bad news for him and his party. The good news: he’s got a solid lead over John McCain in one of the other battlegrounds (New Mexico) and a slight advantage in two others (Pennsylvania and Nevada).

The results can be perused here.
