Electoral-Vote: Road to Victory
We just need PA and MI to win this thing if the rest of the voting map remains the same. I think MI is a definite Kerry lean, and PA less so. Let's stay strong in OH and target PA and MI over the coming weeks. In addition, we should push a lot of resources into states like NH, FL, and CO.

We'll key in on NH and MI as well.

Got a military letter read on the air yesterday, and we hope it will be published this week.

Greetings from Germany!

2. We really need to work the MI undecideds if we want to win here.
To quote our fearless leader, "It's hard work". But instead of knowing it because I watch it on T.V., I know it because I'm out there talking. :hi:

4. I am too
But we need to make sure that we (and the campaign) don't get complacent with states like MI and NJ.

7. I am cautiously optimistic, but will never claim blue till Nov. 2.
Lots of undecideds still holding out. We need to get more signs and more people out there. We need to have open phone banking on Saturdays. These are just a few of the things we need.

8. I honestly believe...
that it is quite plausible Kerry could take both Ohio and Florida. Ohio I think is especially in play because of the campaign really hitting hard on how they have suffered under Bush's policies (huge unemployment rate, thousands of manufacturing jobs lost, skyrocketing health care costs, etc) and even the flawed polls like Gallup and the like are calling it a pretty much dead-even heat in the state. I almost believe that with the youth turnout, newly registed voter turnout, and independents that will likely swing to Kerry that I would add several percentage points to whatever polls say Kerry has in terms of support. We just need people to vote!
