McCain will get nowhere near 12 or 13 points unless Obama really screws something up and loses in a landslide nationwide to McCain. If McCain were to win FL....7points is pretty reasonable. 4 more months though Wink
Florida probably has the worst demograhpics for Obama of any state that was remotely close in 2004.  The idea that McCain wins by double-digits won Bush won by 5 is not far-fetched at all

Obama's problem with the 60+ category has been overstated by the media. Just like his problem with Appalachia was. Plus, If Obama keeps his 30+ lead among Hispanics then he shouldn't lose by that much at all.
While Obama may have a 30 point with Hispanics, I highly doubt Obama even has a lead among Cubans which are the main Hispanic voting bloc in Florida.  It's pretty much Obama's worst nightmare states, even the chunks that should be voting for him are the portion of the chunk that is worst for him.
