Re: Romney 46% - Obama 31%

155 nationally, margin of error ±8%.

With a margin of error of ±8%, the respective confidence intervals for Romney and Obama are:

Romney: (0.38, 0.54)
Obama: (0.23, 0.39)

So there exists a set of outcomes where Obama beats Romney; that, combined with the remaining 23% of the sample who were presumably undecided, shows there's insufficient evidence at whatever the level of significance was for this poll that Romney beats Obama.
