Agree with all of them. I have Arkansas and Minnesota as tossups, with Iowa as a leaner. Illinois I have as solid dem. Chicago and it's burbs just shifted too much, and George Ryan has killed the GOP badly.

At this point, Bush is not on the ballot in California, Illinois, Alabama, West Virginia, and D.C. due to the Republican Convention closing after the filing dates for these locations.

MN is winnable for Bush, if he could encourage the growing suburbs (the Ventura Belt) to turnout for him in big numbers. Huge turnout from the Ventura Belt enabled Tim Pawlenty and Norm Coleman to win in 2002.

Next installment: Tennessee, New Hampshire, Wisconsin, Oklahoma, and the great state of Texas.

As a Texan, I must object to your putting Texas last.

Illinois has suffered a lot of job losses, both Downstate and in the Chicagoland suburbs. Plus, the local media worships Mayor Richard Daley. I doubt Bush will carry IL.

I'd have to count IA as a Rat state. Even Reagan had a close run here against either Carter or Mondull, I can't recall. Something about farm subsidies and government handouts, I'd guess. The Rats have those issues locked up.

Bush has to "run the table" on the states he got the last time, and hopefully pickup up a few others to make it safe, or cover those that might go for Kerry. OH and WV look to be the close ones this time around, if things don't change. Bush will likely lose NV because of Yucca Mountain (even though he's right on his position on that, it just isn't popular there) and maybe NH because of Kerry being a New Englander, something Gore was not. But if we lose OH and WV without a pickup somewhere, we're probably done, no matter what NV and NH do.

Illinois was never in play in the first place.

I don't think New Jersey is going to be in Bush's column. I don't think its even going to be close.
