the mccain campaign is imploding so fast with news of internal shakeups and pundits saying it's "signs of what a disorganized mccain white house would look like" and the Obama lead increasing, and Maliki calling for a withdrawal, what if we were in for a convention floor upheaval? McCain is so weak as a candidate and his weaknesses are only growing as the GOP convention gets closer, and Obama continues to raise unbelievable amounts of money, and September is a long way off... perfect storm time, maybe? Do Rebloodlican power brokers cut a backroom deal to dump the old guy and launch a revolt among the delegates? Could they? Wouldn't that be sweet? Or would it be horrifying? Who cares, I predict the number 270 isn't the sweet spot this year. I propose Obama could clear 350 electoral votes in November. Check out real clear politics' map making tool. You can see their map at the link. THen build your own. I propose Obama pulls the following out of tossup status: FL, MO, CO, NM, NV, surprising VA, OH, MI, and yes, NH. I also propose he flips Montana. That gets us to 352. In my dreams I see flipping Arkansas, Kansas and pulling off a squeaker in North Carolina. That would get us to 379 but that's just dementia setting in.
