McCain should just hammer every part of Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Over and over. He can beat Obama in those states.
Protect CO and VA and you are in.
I just hope they don’t start getting distracted by NY, CA, NJ, WA, OR and the like.
Exactly. In 2000, Bush spent too much time in CA under the delusion that he could carry that state. He neglected FL. What a mess that was.
That becomes a REAL threat, esp if a major news outlet (Fox) starts reporting that McCain and Obama are now TIED in NewYork and that it is now a swing state. This will force the Dem's to respond and take them off their game plan.
As long as it is done once and used to upset the tempo of the Obama camp, it becomes asymmetrical leverage. Besides, NY is close to Pennsylvania so it could be done without too much disruption.
As long as the national race is within 5 points among likely voters (as it is right now when you add the roughly four point difference between likely voters and registered voters in the Gallup poll), I couldn’t agree more. And even if McCain expands his lead slightly beyond 5 points, I would avoid the additional states you mentioned except perhaps New Jersey, and even then only because of its proximity to Pennsylvania.
Bush made the almost fatal mistake of making a play for California, Oregon, and Washington in the last week of the 2000 election, while Gore spent his time in Pennsylvania and Florida. Let’s don’t repeat that mistake.

NY...maybe...NJ...too many 28 days zombies voting in NJ...
WA and OR, especially WA, is just to fraud ridden to even try.
There are a couple of close House Races in VA and MD...I’d love to see an appearance there but...
CA, NY, WA, OR...are Dim waste-lands.
