We Win: NM, IA, VA
That's the game folks. We must hold these three states plus the Kerry states and it's a done deal.

Obama can lose both OH and FL. As long as he wins NM, IA and VA, it's game over McCain.

As of today, he's +11 in NM, +11 in IA, +6 in VA. McCain. Is. Toast.

I'd put CO over VA.
Kerry States +
1. IA (safe for us)
2. NM (safe for us)
3. CO (toss up\leaning Obama)
4. VA (toss up)

2. Unlikely. Obama has an 86% chance to win the state (via 538.com)

4. The polls are from today. Rasmussen and Survey USA
The hypothesis of winning with those three states is mine.

5. Michigan and Pennsylvania are too close to feel complacent

9. I agree. No complacency. But Obama does have an 86% chance of winning PA
and an 85% chance of winning MI, even though they are tight races.

Check out the state-by-state results at fivethirtyeight.com.

7. At 538..com
Obama has a 77% chance of winning CO and a 59% chance of winning VA. Winning CO or VA will push Obama over 270.

:bounce:
I love the smell of victory in the morning.
