Obama has wasted a lot of money in places like Georgia, and Montana. Millions of dollars advertising in Florida has given them little benefit.
It will be interesting to see what states they pull out of next. Panic time.
No, his 57 state strategy was a mistake...
Famous Last Words:
Keep in mind that the resource allocation choices made by the Obama campaign aren’t necessarily focused on the goal of getting him elected President. They may also be motivated by a desire to expand the party’s reach in future election cycles, or to help Democrats in downballot races.
Obama would’ve lost Georgia even with Sam Nunn on the ticket.
No, it wasn’t a mistake. It was the best thing he could have done for this country.
He’s not going to get one vote in Euopean Georgia, tho’.....wonder if that was one of his 57 states.....
Actually the idea of the candidate appearing in ALL states appeals to me. It’s the idea that they can ignore half of the nation when campaigning that offends me.
Obama has made a lot of mistakes...

You beat me to it. The first thing I thought of when I read the headline.
Absolutely not. I encourage Obama to spend lots of time and money campaigning in Alaska and Alabama.
0Bama is not ready to be president. He needs to go put in a little more time in the Senate to build some experience. Being the junior Senator from Illinois doesn’t help him much.
Seriesly, This guy makes my lege tingle. ;o)
The statement about Indiana seems correct.....I’m worried about Indiana ( NEVER thought I’d say that )....but if the current trends toward McCain continue, the next couple of weeks will tell whether the worry is appropriate.
That Obama could win either West Virginia or Indiana is way past crack pipe hallucinations. It is ingesting some kind of sci-fi 24th century drug.
It is also hillarious that Palin is hurting McCain outside the Republican base.
It has unified the base,attracted a few feminist Hillarycrats,appealed to independent white working class folks, and caused the Left to overreach. Giving Palin teflon coating.
If they had made reasonable criticism they may have hurt Palin.But the attacks were so outrageous that people dismiss any new attacks and will dismiss any damaging revelations from “Troopergate.”

With the new laws in New Jersey and Maryland which commit their electoral votes to the winner of the popular vote national wide, for all practical purposes their votes are now McCain votes. The polling in those states is meaningless.
The MSM who cried wolf...or moose, in this case.
I read another article which said that the Obama team was regretting not taking matching funds. Since the convention his fund raising is way below projections and he may end up with less money than Mccain
The analysis from that site...well, post it next to the Limburger cheese. It won't smell so badly by comparison.
