This is your best case map, but I wonder about NM, IA, WI, and VA.
NM and IA I agree...but no way Obama wins VA against McCain.
Hillary could beat McCain in VA though.
Bttt
I used to hang out at an all-night diner about 5 or 6 years ago. Most of the clientele were middle aged white blue collar men, mostly Union, mostly auto worker types.
Listening to these guys talk, there were only two things they hated more than Republicans. Black people, and Muslims.
Lotsa guys like that in PA and OH.
Furthermore, it’s gonna hit like a ton of bricks when the Dems realize that Obama lost because of racism...when they see that it was racist DEMOCRATS that didn’t vote for him. Let’s see them blame THAT on the GOP...
(I’m sure they’ll find a way...)
I suspect the same thing will happen in Detroit.
Obama is not only polling badly in Pennsylvania but has fallen within the margin of error in New Jersey and New York. If he can’t carry New York and New Jersey, he’s toast.
I’m not convinced that Obama can take New Jersey.
I still see it as a 2-3 point win for Barry, but if NJ is called for McCain early in the evening, the election is over.
One might think so, but the 'rats have a potentially bottomless capacity for self-deception. That's why they are 'rats after all.
I think that the Demwhit fight may go down to the convention. I hope this fight opens the eyes of moderate Democrats and they leave the party. I fear that Denver will take some damage in the process.
That would be something.
>but the Copperheads were loyal Democrats too.
and outright nuts.
I don't think that's all that difficult. For the first demographic, circulate pictures of those Obama supporters with Che Guevara Cuban flags to shore up the Cuban vote and McCain's compromise stance in illegal immigrants, while unpopular with conservatives, could help him with this demographic, too. As for the Koreans and Indians, bring in Bobby Jindal to campaign for him.
We really need to thank Rush and all members of “Operation Chaos” that “bloodied up” Obama. Without OC this would have been over long ago, instead look at what has come to light about BHO that would have remained in the shadows.
Looks like WI will come over from the dark side. I think Obama is screwed.
While I definately see PA going for McCain, I see Obama taking NJ by 2-3%...
...sorry, disagree...Obama takes PA by 2% and NJ by 5 or more...never, never underestimate the power of Philadelphia to dictate to the PA legislature, including cheating...this election will be razor thin, though if HIlary were in it she’d beat McCain easily, winning both FL and PA, and contending in OH...

...exactly what did el rushbo do to ‘bloody up’ Obama...
