RealClearPolitics does not back this argument. Rather they are equally paired against the Republican. RCP averages all the polls, and here are some highlights:
Both O and C beat McC in Ohio in a close race, O by more.
Both O and C beat McC in Penn. with a comfortable margin, C by more.
McC beats O very closely in Florida, C wins.
McC beats C very closely in Mich, O wins.
If you go through the average polls thus far for the "battleground states," neither Dem candidate emerges stronger against McC than the other. The C and O spins are not backed by data. But I guess that's the definition of "a spin": a claim not backed by data.
