Who knows, but Ronald Reagan did, let Bill Cunningham put his money where his mouth is.
You realize, of course, that your illogic is beginning to look bad for you, don't you?
You'd do better to argue that maybe McCain can pull out Ohio without SW Ohio. You could argue that Cunningham won't have that big an effect. Both of those would be better directions than the one you've taken.
I don't begrudge your supporting McCain. Who knows...he might patch this up, and I might still hold my nose and vote for him.
But, what if he's pulling a Dole and trying to lose?
