..I’m guessing 299 plus or minus 10—assuming McCain changes his tactics on addressing economic matters...

IA and NM should be white with light blue lines (like MI). If PA is considered a true toss-up, then I’d throw WI in that same category. IMHO.

PA should still be blue.

Polls don’t count the dead.

I hope it holds, but wait a few days for the Obama manufactured rebound to hit the state polls.

i don’t care how we get to the number — i’d even give Obama-bin-Biden the leftover 4 electoral votes as a consolation prize.

It looks like this projection has McCain getting most of the swing states of Nevada, Colorado, New Mexico, Florida, Michigan, Ohio, Virginia, with Pennsylvania too close to call. But even without Penn. he’s still in front.

The debates could be key. There’s still a lot of undecided voters, percentage-wise.

I’m looking forward to the VP debate more than VP debates in prior elections. I have a feeling that Sarah will shine and that Joe Biden’s conversation style will hurt him.

im calling a 274 264 victory Mccain
its fairly easy to do...just hold all states bush won in 2004 but lose new mexico and iowa. still we must fight hard to swipe either penn or mich or wisc from him just for safety.

obama is in a MUCH worse position.

the ARG poll about New Mexico is updated on the map - and this poll was one of those which show Obama’s bound

I had an email exchange with the site creator who swore up and down Palin was a mistake...

No, he shouldnt be, but the MSM is going ape $hit at the thought of him losing. Just look at the AP story about Palin’s email this morning. Not only are they manufacturing a scandal out of it to destroy her, they wont even cooperate with the secret service.

The polls are still moving. This can change anyday with just a few point turn around in a few key states. McCain is in better shape, but Obama is in full attack mode.

He shouldn't even be in the ballgame. Neither should the North Vietnamese hero have been within 100K votes of the Oval Office four years ago. But it is what it is.

in a normal world, he would be a non-issue. This guy is NOTHING. It is frightening that Americans MIGHT think about sending a poor actor in the real White House...

I would think that by now the pollsters would have that correction factor accounted for in their poll results.
