View Full Version : Prediction: Electoral tie.
My guess is that Obama will carry Nevada, New Mexico and Iowa. Three states that Bush carried in 04. I don't think McCain will be able to get any more of the mid-western states, but he'll still keep Ohio and Florida.
The result will be an electoral tie and the president will be decided by the House of Representatives (which is mostly democrats).
Polls are meaningless. Its all about the electoral map. Any states that Im forgetting? I don't think Obama will be able to keep Colorado. Especially not after the huge Palin bump we're seeing.
RCP has a great electoral map you can play with.....you can see that the scenario of a tie is actually starting to look likely:

By that prediction site, supposedly having an excellent record, in the next 8 weeks, HUSSEIN! has to lose 32 votes to drop below the 270 required, and Old McSame must pickup 46 electoral votes. Assuming they split the "ties", HUSSEIN still wins by a landslide.
But, 8 weeks is a long time for the Repug slime-and-slander attack machine, already desperate because it's lies haven't been very effective and have been strongly countered by HUSSEIN, to distract voters from the economy and Iraq/Afghan wars and to convince ignorant sheeple that HUSSEIN is not patriotic, is a terrorist, is a Muslim, lie, lie, lie.

32 votes? Well that site with the "excellent record" show Obama winning North Dakota. Im gonna go out on a limb and say thats not going to happen. :lol
That site also only uses a single poll per state while RCP uses a "poll of polls".
However, I don't think you are actually trying to inject anything into this thread. Youre just being the typical jackass youve always been.

I can see now why the Dems had their convention in Colorado. If McCain gets OH and IN, but not PA, winning that state could put him over the top. The key state, though, is still PA (no pun intended). Whoever wins there will probably win it all.

I don't think McCain has a chance at PA. I think Michigan or Wisconsin would be more plausible, but both of them are quite a stretch.
McCain needs to "keep" both Colorado, Ohio, Florida and NEVADA. I don't think he has a chance at New Mexico.
