Everybody gets emotional at the mentioning of Georgia flipping. Wink I forgot where I posted it, but whites have saw their percentage of the electorate drop from 68% in 2004 to 63% in 2008, which is one good sign. The other thing is that from living in a traditionally very strong Republican area of GA (even when the Democrats controlled GA), that I've encountered many white people who are staying home on Election Day because they think both of the candidates are crap.

2008 GA Registered Voters Breakdown:
White: 63.52%
Black: 29.23%
Asian: 1.14%
Hispanic: 1.37%
Other: 4.74%

Obama would need to win at least 30% of whites. Possible, but unlikely.
