East Kansas outside of St. Louis, Kansas City and Columbia is a lost cause...too many pockets of completely back-ass hill-jacks with racial issues and gullibility issues to boot. I can't even tell you how depressing it is just in Dick Gephart's old district...further out from the metro area than that and you might as well be in Montana, Idaho or the actual Kansas.

I will cast my vote for McCaskill and Obama and both will lose this state by wide margins...

NC is very doable. Polls there are neck and neck. It will come down to turnout. WI_DEM May 2012 #3

YUP ... the blue parts of NC will be out in force. JoePhilly May 2012 #10

McCain won MO in 2008 with a very small margin of victory. I will be close again. libinnyandia May 2012 #9

MO. is out... Moostache May 2012 #16

I think FL and NC ultimately go Obama... Drunken Irishman May 2012 #8

Obama needs one of these to make it an early night. JoePhilly May 2012 #11

VA makes it an early night. Drunken Irishman May 2012 #12

also true. JoePhilly May 2012 #13

OH makes it an early night too! Drunken Irishman May 2012 #15

early morning? Flying Squirrel May 2012 #18

303 to 235 isn't real close but it is no romp. That said, I think Obama will win FL and NC also. yellowcanine May 2012 #19

If the election were held today, I think this looks about right. boxman15 May 2012 #22

If the Obama campaign can just win Nevada and Colorado, boxman15 May 2012 #23

Colorado will remain blue... Woody Woodpecker May 2012 #24
