prediction: which state - expected to be red - will go blue?

[fryguy]

get out your tea leaves and crystal balls....name the state that you guess will shock the pundits/pollsters and switch from red to blue at the end of the day tomorrow.

my top contenders:

West Virginia

North Carolina

[featherman]

1. Nevada

[blondeatlast]

My guess, too. nt

[Beaverhausen]

46. I went to NV over the weekend to convince them

I hope it goes blue. I will feel sooooooooooo good!

[marigold20]

50. Yeah, I think that one will go Kerry too.

nt

[ronnykmarshall]

54. I think we have a good shot there too.

[Goldmund]

2. Arkansas

[ScreamingMeemie]

55. I'm with you!

[slestak]

Tennessee

Virginia

Arkansas

[lilsourgoose]

10. The magic 8 ball tells me...

Arizona

West Virginia

Arkansas

[fryguy]

15. interesting magic eight ball....

mine only says things like - "check back later" "outlook good" etc....where do you get one with state's names? j/k

[wjbill49]

31. Psychic or Psycho

I am still thinking Arizona will be a surprise (at least for me) Kerry state. After that ........ not sure

[Tennessee Gal]

24. From your lips to God's ears!

I would love to see that!

Tennessee, Virginia, & Arkansas

[dr.strangelove]

5. Nevada or New Mexico

[bowens43]

6. North Carolina.

[katmondoo]

14. I second North Carolina

Just a hunch

[RT Atlanta]

16. Third NC too

Lotsa "common" folks upset about the economy in NC/SC and will be voting their pocket books....

[Thrill]

18. I live in NC- I wouldn't bet on that

My guess would be NV

[Toronto Ron]

42. In order of decreasing likelihood:

1) CO
2) NV
3) VA
4) AR
5) NC
6) TN

[jmowreader]

22. I'll also go with NC

There's an article in the paper today--three percent growth is "below average."

[RevCheesehead]

7. What the hey - I'm feeling lucky: Wyoming and Alaska

[belladonna]

8. Virginia

Been saying it for months and I feel more confident than ever that we're going blue tomorrow :D

[4_Legs_Good]

20. I agree... I think Virginia will be the first surprise of tomorrow night

[fryguy]

44. I'd LOVE to see that

Its always been in the back of my mind - that there would come a time when No. Va. was able to sway the rest of the state....

[Zynx]

9. MO, VA, and WV

Nevada too.

[Anarcho-Socialist]

11. Missouri

Also Arkansas! :dem:

19. Virginia (eom)

[lynintenn]

21. Missouri

[loudestchick]

36. Oh! Yeah!!!! Show me that pretty blue!!

[yellowcanine]

23. Virginia.

[WI_DEM]

25. I think that Colorado and Nevada still are absolute possibilities

of going from RED to blue and maybe Arkansas.

[kerry2win]

26. Virginia. Arkanas N.Carolina Arizona

[Zen Democrat]

27. VIRGINIA

[Eurobabe]

28. Virginia, I can only hope....

[bush equals idiot]

[0007]

[WoodrowFan]

30. Texas and Utah

Ok, so I like long-shots.

[fryguy]

56. long shot?

utah is about as long as you could get -- aren't there like 4 dems in the whole state?

[wjbill49]

32. Pre-game jitters

Until I actually do see some pleasant surprise I think I will remain tense!!! Anyone else "anguished"?

[DemsUnited]

33. Virginia Virginia and, oh yeah, VIRGINIA!!

SO many volunteers doing so many things tomorrow. As I write this, I'm printing packets for a group of Young Democrats from a local high school. Not even eligible to vote yet, and 50 kids are going to give up their teacher workday holiday to knock on doors and remind people to vote.

Say it with me, people, Virginia is going BLUE!

[Amaya]

34. Arizona

nt

[htuttle]

35. Tejas

[fryguy]

45. a bit TOO optomistic I think

although how nice would that be? chimp heads back to Crawford after the state says he's a jerk.... couldn't be any better than that

[redsoxliberal]

37. colorado!

[LoverOfLiberty]

40. Florida and Ohio

or was that already assumed?

[fryguy]

59. i think assumed

[shawmut]

41. another vote for Virginia

close polls + big turnout + hard working Kerry supporters on the ground = Kerry victory in VA.

[greekspeak]

Wyoming

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!! Man could you IMAGINE the look on Cheney's face if Wyoming went blue? Priceless!

[AspenRose]

43. Tennessee

Nevada

Arizona

[PopSixSquish]

48. Virginia, Arkansas or Colorado

my stretch pick is Kentucky. I really like Dr. Dan's chances at beating the crazy man. And a rising tide lifts all boats.

[tsuki]

49. Virginia

[Darth_Kitten]

51. Virginia

:D

perhaps. :) It would be nice...........

[mconvente]

52. my thoughts

virginia, WV, colorado (not really bleeding red anyways) and arkansas

[ronnykmarshall]

53. Arkansas!

[fryguy]

58. Seems the consensus is gravitating to VA

[VOX]

60. Arkansas, Arizona, Nevada...

And possibly W. Virginia.

:kick:

[Bandit]

61. Alaska may just surprise some folks

My local high school had an election and Kerry won by 52% to 47% Nader got 1%. Lisa Murkowski was trounced. She only got 28% of the vote. don You8ng got 55% though which really dissappointed me but he is basically running unopposed. There is a Democrat running but he only had $4000. in his campaign chest compared to several million for Young. Alaska may surprise folks is all I'm saying.
