Please don't say any of these maps are stupid, becasue they are  gut feelings maps, they are going to be kinda crazy![/[/size]

Feeling are important, it is what makes us human, but it is time to stop speculating that Obama is going to carry NC. It is not going to happen! However, NOVA has become a noisome nest of nattering nabobs of negativism, so it's gone. Given that, below is the map. If anyone has a questions, let me know. I can "explain" everything. Notice that distance does tend to cause the heart to grow fonder, which of course is what "feelings" are all about.

You need to fix OK and NM, MI and OH, NY and MA, FL and AL, and GA and NC.

idaho should be a tossup also.

(especially if obama runs an ad there that claims he is full of dignity or something)

How do I think the election will break down once attack ads have run their course and people find out what Obama really is?


NJ and IA are closest states

Optimistic lad with MI, PA & OH going to the Big Mac.

I agree with Dave (Democratic Hawk's map)

I remember that feeling from 2000 and 2002. I gave up hope before 2004 that people actually cared what "he really is."

I know it's an extremely biased map, but I'm just holding onto optimism:



McCain wins 291 - 247

BRTD, you just don't understand the metric of the map. That is all.

My gut says Obama wins by about 8 points, and gets somewhere in the high 300s as far as electoral votes go.
