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.
Some of those states like Wisconson that are white with a blue line means they think they can steal it.
On the ground here in PA, I have to say Fauxbama will not win this state. WI definately is in play. The rust belt is the battleground of this election, let no one tell you otherwise.
Short of something drastically shifting the dynamic, between now and NOV 4.
PA, MI, WI and possibly MN (if it is truly as close as some recent polls have claimed there), any of those states go McCain the race is over.
I’m not sure why so many seem to think New Mexico is not winnable for McCain. I think it is very winnable. The key to New Mexico for Republican Presidential candidates is to get out the vote statewide. Most in the rural areas voted for Bush, and it takes all the rural and small town votes to override the crazy liberals in Santa Fe and parts of Albuquerque. A large turnout for Republicans has worked here in the past.
