I watch Colorado all the time.

The scenario with Obama winning the popular vote whilst losing in the EC is almost impossible. Elian would have to personally endorse Obama and name his first child after him.

The scenario with McCain winning the popular vote whilst losing in the EC is about a 1 in 10 chance.

 

It is not imossible. Obama is going to win by large margins in many populous states (NY, CA and IL to name a few). If McCain wins by small margins in states that are usually strong Republican (VA, CO, NC and a few others), he will win the EC vote and lose the popular vote. I am not saying it is likely to happen, but it is not implausible.
