As I look at the electoral college map, it's not that different than what I think today's vote would be.

I expect Obama to get stronger before the election, but the map has Ohio as an undecided state but with Obama the favorite to win it. If he does, and all the other states hold true on this map, WE are at 271 and a victory, even if the other toss-up, Iowa, doesn't come our way.

To me, this map says we win.

I think a 277-261 PBO victory is quite likely. I think VA/NH/CO/FL are more 'up for grabs' than WI!! DMacTX Oct 2012 #5
