Above 50% in VA & slightly ahead in NC.

1. ARG sucks. They had Kerry winning in 2004.

[NotThisTime]

We're taking NC, I don't care what anyone says!

2. We need the turnout in VA tomorrow

I can't emphasize that enough. There will be rain. I hope people go out and vote in huge numbers. Without Virginia in our column we may get screwed.

4. VA has early voting, right?

I thought they voted early there?

[thewiseguy]

6. Not the way you think. 10% voted early by the absentee ballots.

I am concerned about the turnout in Virginia and those long lines under the rain.

If we don't get Virginia, then it can get ugly.

8. Obama has multiple paths to victory...

so VA is not the be all and end all (for Obama).

Now if McCain loses VA, it's over for him.

9. I've been worrying about that

I sure hope people will tough it out and wait in the rain. The recent polls from VA look encouraging but still very close.

My main hope is we are at least 2-3 states over 270. It doesn't look like we are relying on any one particular state, but I'm a bit concerned that all of our hopes will fall on VA and CO.

My real hope is Obama takes FL. That one state would end McCain's chances.

3. How many more polls are there?

They're getting ponderous. Time to vote.

[HughMoran]

5. This one ran through today

Some like to run polls 'till the last minute.

7. If Obama wins NC...

...he won't need a single other "swing state" to win the election.

He could lose BOTH Ohio AND Florida and still win if he keeps PA and takes NC.
