New poll by SurveyUSA had Obama up by +4 in Virginia. Looks like that state will still be pretty competitive. Florida is most likely going to McCain. Ohio will be a tough battle, but right now I would call it for McCain.

 

McCain will win Florida, Missouri and Nevada. It will come down to Ohio, Virginia and Colorado. If he is going to win the election, Mccain will have to win all three of those states. Two of these states are traditionally Republican (Colorado and Virginia) and one is soft Republican (Ohio), He cannot afford a 269-269 tie as the House would indubitably elect Obama and the Senate would elect Biden.

This is my favorite poll tracking site as it allows you to manipulate the EC map: http://www.usatoday.com/news/politics/election2008/poll-tracker.htm

I don't see Obama winning Ohio... what with his NAFTA position change... and the fact that a lot of people here still think he's a secret muslim.
