PA is becoming a necessary rather than a nice-to-have state for McCain. Virginia is going to be very close, and I am afraid that Colorado is now unwinnable. Nope, gotta strongly disagree with you. The GOP is sending in hundreds of volunteers and staff to CO. Palin just did three events in CO, and McCain is doing two more events there on Friday. It's quite winnable. It's just gonna require a fistfight. I think VA is in as good or better shape than CO. PA is not necessary for McCain. But it is necessary for the Obamessiah.

I agree that the GOP is fighting hard in Colorado, but the polls have not moved a bit. Northern Virginia is also a problem, with thousands of former D.C. and Maryland voters having moved there. The biggest problem that I think we're going to face is that McCain needs to "run the table", while Obama just needs to pick off a few formerly red states. It's doable, but I would far rather have the lead at this point.
I think Mac wins Florida and Ohio, regardless. That's why PA is so vital - it would be a game-changer allowing for a loss of VA and CO and still providing a potential avenue to victory.

“PA is not necessary for McCain. But it is necessary for the Obamessiah. “
Disagree.
PA will be for McCain in 2008, what Ohio was to Bush in 2004 (and what Florida was in 2000).
Literally, “the keystone” this time around...
