The problem as I see it, is that McCain will win the older, military, church going votes. This election is going to be about turnout. Will enough GOP voters turn out at the polls to help thier candidate or will the abundance of new voters the Democrats have energized in the primaries show up and vote in November. Another thing is that it all comes down to the electoral map (which I think we should eliminate the electoral college). Can Obama compete in Florida? Will Ohio and PA swing to the democrats. Alot of answers yet to be decided.
In attempt to be fully disclosed, I am a lifelong republican who isn't sold on McCain. I live in Florida.
Seeing as your so prescient about the November results, how 'bout a new market related to your prediction? % of Obama win? Something like that? hee hee
