Here's how I see the electoral college
tell me if I am off

McCain: AK, ID, MT, WY, UT, ND, SD, KS, OK, TX, AZ, AR, KY, GA, TN, LA, MS, AL, GA, SC, IN, WV (NE-4)
198 electoral votes

Obama: HI, WA, OR, CA, NM, NV, CO, MN, IA, WI, IL, MI, PA, ME, VT, MA, CT, RI, NY, NJ, DE, MY, DC,
(NE-1) 271 electoral votes

Likely Obama: VA, FL, OH, NH 64 electoral votes

Possible Obama but a stretch: NC, MO 26 electoral votes

So I see it as Obama but possibly anywhere from 271-361 electoral votes

2. Hey if you sum my totals up..I'm close
But I just can't see NC going blue, and possibly MO either..but I sure as hell hope they do. It would be a joy to see AK and AZ go blue though!!!

3. I'd say around 350-ish for Obama
Look at the Yahoo Political Dashboard. I'll give McCain one of the swing states currently leaning Obama, probably either Missouri or NC. That leaves Obama with approximately 350 EVs, a far larger margin of victory than either 2000 or 2004.
