Obama close I think

I think it will be down at the low end of the "Obama easily" band, perhaps somewhere in the region of 330 EVs. I think he might have trouble taking North Carolina, but I do think he'll manage Pennsylvania. If McCain takes Florida then it'll be really tight, but I think Obama should just hang on there.

Yeh I agree with you about the low end of the "Obama easily" band. Thanks for the insight to where he might have trouble, haven't been following this election as much as I would like because of my studies. Will this new poll giving McCain a +2 advantage or something change things dramatically?!

I haven't seen that poll, but it seems to be an outlier rather than part of a last-minute trend. The bookies still have McCain out at around 8/1, which is pretty long odds for a two-horse race!

I'm deliberately not going to vote in this poll for superstitious reasons.

Hehehe! No problemo if it could affect Obama's chances of winning. But may I ask why? :)

[kapitankraut.livejournal.com]

Why I'm superstitious? I don't really know. I've just always had this belief that there's no guarantee of anything happening until it's happened, and something as important as a Presidential election is something I really don't want to risk jinxing.

All you have to do is knock on wood and say "Insha'alla!"
