Electoral College Map

This is what I think it looks like based on current polling and trends. It looks pretty tough for McCain to find a route to 270.

Yep, the electoral math, like the polls, don't look good for McCain. He would need to get all the toss up states, plus win VA and turn CO or NM.

That's his 'best' option to get to 270, but it is a tall order and momentum will have to shift big time.

we'll see what DieBolt has to say about that.

Hilarious! Man, you guys and your conspiracy stuff.

Mccain wins with DieBolt's help dies in the spring and Sarah Palin becomes president and goes looking for Putin's ugly head rearing up somewhere.

From Rasmussen:

The Rasmussen Reports Balance of Power Calculator shows Obama leading in states with 200 Electoral College votes while McCain has the edge in states with 174 votes. When “leaners” are included, Obama leads 255-227

From Rasmussen:

And there's your problem. Here's an example of how whacked out Ras is, they have NC going to McCain (http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/election_20082/2008_presidential_election/election_2008_electoral_college_update) in that write-up, even though their own poll (http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/election_20082/2008_presidential_election/north_carolina/election_2008_north_carolina_presidential_election ) from thursday shows Obama winning it.
