Sarah Palin, Republican Vice Presidential Candidate

[Dimmauk]

I think its funny how the Palin said she wants to be president of the Senate, constitutionally ban Gay marriage and Abortion, but also wants smaller government.

off topic(if theres a such thing): this is what i think it might end up looking like in 08!

I think VA will go blue this year.

I think VA will go blue this year.

Always possible, I just based my guess of history of the states voting. I honestly don't think FL will go blue though(live in the state and again while possible i don't think it'll happen). I have a friend that lives in WV, i might be able to get a better assessment of the area after i talk to him and see what he thinks.

Edit: Montana should be yellow.. mistake.

You might think I'm really stretching with this map, but here's what I'm thinking (yellow is toss-up cuz I really think they could go either way):

OH and FL disgust me, espcially OH. The majority people who live in OH are middle class at best, and it's painfully obvious that it's in their best interest to vote democrat so that their kids can have more affordable healthcare, better social programs and lower taxes, yet year after year they are the swing state mostly leaning red. Think for yourself for once OH?

Not sure how much stock you put in polls but you should check out Fivethirtyeight or electoral-vote.com. Obama has pretty substantial consistent leads in Colorado and Virginia. I don't see McCain winning that many battlegrounds.

None honestly. I think most the polls are crap. I think the biggest issue for Obama is getting people out to vote. I know he's not trying to let people calm down about it but I'm sure people are becoming complacent. And I also don't think most of those "usually red" states are going to go blue... again just my guess.

This is my prediction, which would give Obama a 313-225 win. As much as Ohio should be voting for Obama I just don't see it happening for some reason. There is some obvious wiggle room here but more than likely it will end up with a similar result as the one I am predicting.

I'm not sure about VA, the amount of military in VA, however; Northern VA (Prince William County and north) seems to be mostly Democrat except of the military people. PA could swing to McCain as well. I however; don't see how McCain can win in OH or FL.

[Penthesilea]

PA won't swing McCain.

[Xno Kappa]

PA won't swing McCain.

All the metropolitan cities in PA are mostly blue. That includes Philadelphia, Harrisburg, Pittsburgh, etc where an overwhelming percentage of population is located. PA's gonna be a hard win for McCain.

Actually, here in Missouri there are mostly Obama supporters. Kansas, on the other hand, firmly believes that Obama is a terrorist.

It's funny because both obama's maternal grandparents are from Kansas.

Sort of related, do you think Murtha's comments could hurt Obama?

[Xno Kappa]

I think its too late to hurt Obama really as far as attracting any new voters. It will help to further cement those who weren't going to vote for him anyways. McCain kinda defused the whole situation with his awkward comments, kinda of a look in the mirror type deal whether he meant it or not.

[Olo401]

I think they can hurt Murtha.. He was a idiot for saying that kinda thing (out loud and deliberately using those words).

Then again, Murtha's never been one to mince his words.

I hope that Marine wins his case against that douchebag ...
