Cook Political Report: Clinton 278 Minimum

Not really my go political site but since we are looking at final (or near final) projections, might was well throw this one out. The ever cautious and rarely interesting Cook Political Report sees Clinton at 278 ev minimum.

3. This is very good and makes sense

The idea of HRC getting 370 is so not likely. This one makes sense. As long as HRC holds Nevada, NH, Colorado then NC and FlA make no difference.

However, taking NC and FLA would spring Clinton +300 and heading toward landslide.

I do not think she will blow it away, but for the sake of our nation I really hope she blows it out.

I mean I'd like to win those states and every other state out there too. But if any candidate can get to 270 without huge states like Florida and North Carolina then that candidate is unbeatable!
