OK, I will make an other attempt at posting my map when I get home from school.

It's similar to most of the other maps here, but I think the Dems will make a surprisingly strong showing in the south and mid-west, winning most of the tossups there, but then losing the election due to bad performance in the southwest, b/c Supersoulty makes good use of his Catholicism, winning the Hispanic voter, giving the Dems nothing but CA and WA in the west (and HI of course).

But then I read that Nym90 is fom Wisconsin, so he wins that, giving him the election 274-264. A really close one.

I am a Catholic as well.

Ah, me didn't know that. Then I assume you will attack Supersoulty on who's a "Catholic's best friend" and retain  lot of Hispanics, thus making AZ, NM and FL more in play again. But it will hurt you among WASPs in the South, so he might win back some there...I will have to alter my predictions.

Basically I will not make my Catholicism an issue.  However, my Catholicism shuold prevent Supersoulty from exploiting his.
So the effect is nil on both of us likely.

That's up to the campaign manager to decide, lol...

I think Supersoulty would try and make himself out as not another Republican, using his home state and religion to enforce this. This will improve the GOP-showing among Hispanics. I have altered my predictions yet again and am now predicting a really close race, 270-268. Don't remember to whom right now, will post that in a minute... Smiley

Supersoulty wins, despite you winning LA, MS TN and AR, as well as NM, WI and MN.

But I do intend to campaign as "not just another republican", not dising my party, but more of a Reagan kind of different.

Ah, so I see why Nym90 is the appropriate choice. He won't stoop to conquer to the degree that the wall of separation between church and state crumbles. I have no doubt this will hurt supersoulty, because if his faith informs his political views, then it must be fairly extreme.

OK, here it is! The poll of the two candidates, now that the primaries are over. Feel free to post comments on the election, or how it would go in a real life general with an EC.

I have posted a prediction map (Gustaf3, I think it was) predicting a narrow GOP victory in the EC. I will not try to predict the actual election here on the board yet, but I think it's gonna be close... Smiley

I don't understand what we're doing here. How do we vote? When?

If you call me extreme, I must say that it only proves how extreme you are.

Yes, but I cannot post it b/c I am stupid... Sad

You can check out Gustaf3, I belive it is. But just search for "Gus" on the prediction page and you will get all my maps up. The only one that haves southern states in the Dem column is the appropriate one. It says that it's about you as well.

Listen, here is how you get the image up, if you are on windows.

Step one: Right-click on the image.
Step two: You will see a "properties" option when you right-click.  Click on that and you will see a information box.
Step three: you will see the image's web adress int he box.  Copy that.  Then paste it in between img and /img brackets.
