A few states to watch:
MI, OH, MO, NH - could all wind up in the (R) column depnding on who the nominee is.
No way. There's a reason Romney is a one-term governor who didn't dare run for re-election.
Yeah, why not, I like to live life on the edge.
BTW, I'll give you 2:1 odds that the Giants beat the Pats - I'll even give you 2 points.
If Pawlenty is all that popular he'd be better used trying to help Coleman save his senate seat.
He likely loses North Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee, and Arkansas. He would be lucky to lose only those states in the South once the commercials start with his 2002-2005 stances in his own words start to play.
I think this map drifts toward blue if McCain is the GOP nominee.
Ditto
(And ditto on the tagline!)
Your both wrong:
The dems will not win in the south an Mitt will not win Massachusetts.
He might make Michigan competitive.
Well have a much better idea after tomorrow.

The Dims won in the South 12 years ago with an unpopular Clinton on the ticket due to the choice of Republican candidate. 2008 looks to be a repeat of that experience.
WI and PA are also in the mix.
In a three way race. The dems will win.
The question is where will the Ron Paul supporters go after tuesday when he calls it quits?
“I’m just shocked that there’s a 3.7% chance the Republican wins Washington DC. I thought that would be zero.”
“”Well, no, it couldn’t be zero...she could be caught red-handed on film buying cocaine and that would...
Oh, nevermind! “”
WAY too funny!! Mostly because it’s true.
Only Republican candidates get held accountable for their actions. Dems just “apologize” and then demand you immediately forgive them.
Colorado and Missouri are winnable.
Then The GOP needs to add either Ohio, or Michigan, or Minnesota+Iowa to make an electoral vote majority.
Michigan should be in play if native son Mitt Romney heads the ticket.

McCain-Pawlenty in ‘08.
You heard it here first.
I’m less than thrilled with this ticket. But it’s slightly better than what the dems are offering.
