Crap....sorry for the inattention to detail...”hear”, not “here”, “,” not “)”...etc. I can’t multi-task for anything!

Total Vote Turnout Estimate 2008: 130,000,000

52% Obama 48% McCain *3rd party candidates are excluded for this model

Obama Total Votes: 67,600,000 McCain Votes: 62,400,000

Your whole model is based on these assumptions drawn from badly slanted polling samples, wherein 80% of the called parties refused to participate.

My estimate: Obama would have to steal or manufacture 17.6 million votes to get to 67 million. In other words, I don't believe Obama will draw 50 million actual votes from living, breathing, legitimate American voters.

If Mccain holds the Bush states he doesn’t need Pennsylvania.

Mccain is not defending a half dozen formerly red states the final days and only on the attack in blue PA because his internals say he’s ahead.

I hate to break it to ya’ll.

We have to turn out on Tuesday....record turnout by cracker America.
