51. I don't doubt it, we're not in the clear yet
I hope Democrats don't get too confident about winning because if you factor in things like Republican's suppressing voters, the Bradley Effect, and the non-stop character assaults McCain is running on, this election can still be close. What do you think Barack's ceiling is? The percentage of voters who would potentially vote for him because there are of course a number of people who would never vote for him just as there are a number of people who would never vote for McCain. His ceiling maybe be a little over 50% or so. Right now the polls show him right there so there is little potential upside from now on, the race is going to tighten. If Republicans can scare enough people with their blatant lies and fear-mongering, which they've done successfully in the past, this race could be very very close.
