President Bush will pick up West Virginia. He may have a shot in Minnesota and Michigan. As for California's I'd say its a long shot but if the President is leading by a double digit margin nationally, he can with without it; if its a blowout, he's probably pick up all of the weak Gore states.

I hope you are correct -- but there are six things
that bode well for Kerry in WV:

1. The Bush flip flop on the steel tariff issue.
2. Lack of job growth in the state aside from WalMart.
3. Access to affordable healthcare
4. Byrd and Rockefeller are not sitting out this
election as they did with Gore.
5. Democrats still have a 2 to 1 registration
majority in WV, and the Democratic base seems
energized and will turn out heavily for the
state wide offices, something they did not do in 2000.
6. The gun issue has yet to emerge in the campaign.

I hope Bush has a shot in Minnesota. I'm going to do my part--and campaign all my wacko leftist friends and family to vote Nader.
