Pennsylvania. Even with McCain/Palin's full-on assault, Obama still won by double digits, and voter registration will still be overwhelmingly in his favor in 2012. Plus, Gore and Kerry won it.

Pennsylvania- it's leaned to the left for a long time.

Pennsylvania, as long as Republicans continue to get slaughtered in southeast PA. New Hampshire may be out of reach too.

Pennsylvania. Obama won it by ten points despite the last-minute efforts of McCain/Palin. Pennsylvania is about as far from flipping R as Texas is from flipping D.

Pennsylavania, I also don't see NH flipping either. New Mexico, Nevada, and Iowa are also questionable, but they weren't on the list.

Pennsylvania is probably out of the Republicans' reach for the time being. New Hampshire won't vote Republican as long as the party is dominated by Southern religious conservatives.

New Hampshire, I know Obama won PA by double-digits, but it was close in 2004 and 2000. PA is not likely, to flip, but more likely then New Hampshire.

NH was closer, and won by Bush. Smiley Also, it is such a small state that margins will be a little easier to overcome.

Obama's approvals haven't been all that great there. The right Republican could win it.

For the 1 millionth time... Pennsylvania.  You would need a very moderate Republican or a Giuliani to flip it EVER again.  It's still possible.  And even with McCain's full assault, like someone said, PA was won by Obama by double digits despite the racial fears.  Had the nominee been Hillary Clinton, PA could have easily been a >60% Dem state.
