By Eric Kleefeld - July 24, 2008, 11:21AM

Uh, oh. Conventional wisdom holds that McCain's campaign is tanking and has been an all-around disorganized mess, but a new round of polling from Quinnipiac suggests John McCain could be making major headway in key swing states. He's also taken the lead in Colorado, where Barack Obama is making a major play for support.

Here are the latest numbers, compared to Quinnipiac's previous poll from a month ago:

Colorado

McCain (R) 46% (+2)Obama (D) 44% (-5)

Michigan

Obama (D) 46% (-2)McCain (R) 42% (+0)

Minnesota

Obama (D) 46% (-8)McCain (R) 44% (+7)

Wisconsin

Obama (D) 50% (-1)McCain (R) 39% (+0)
