State Polling of Obama-McCain Race: A Realistic Assessment | 218 comments (218 topical)
Michigan can be "made up" (5.00 / 4) (#42)

CO, IA, NM, VA, NV, or other places?  Please.  MI is critical.  He can't assume he can capture enough additional "red" or "purple" states to make up for MI.  He's already lost FLA.  And he doesn't have a "lock" on PA. Clinton might have had a "lock" on it, but right now Obama doesn't.  He needs to build up his presence in PA.  He can't take MI or OH or PA for granted, nor can he assume that he can pick up enough states for those big three to become less than critical.  

He also needs to watch out for NJ.  My guess is that it will go Blue in the end, but NJ has a tendency to poll more Republican than it actually goes.  McCain will poll well there, at least for a while, and Obama can't let up there.

I don't think dems will win Michigan or Ohio (none / 0) (#172)

Detroit won't compensate for a huge statewide loss which is what I predict will happen
