We all better believe it- Obama IS leading in the EC votes. I postd this in response to several threads. Obama leads in the big highly populated states. McCain NEEDS to take two of Ohio, PA, MI, MN plus VA and FL to win.
Otherwise, the math doesn’t work and he loses by like 5 EC votes.
Think about, polling shows Obama leading the west coast from WA to CA. He is leading in the east coast from Maine to Virginia, with Virginia and the Carolinas in play. FL is a toss up. Obama also is leading in PA, OH, MN, MI, IL, WI and IA. Some of those states have big EC vote tallies.
McCain leads in a lot of states, but most of those states are single digit EC votes, except for Texas.
National polls are great, but I want to see big statewide swings in Obama states before I get comfortable.
McCain is going to win 40+ States.
Good point, he will win the states that GwhORE & sKerry won decidedly for sure.
