16. Wisconsin, Iowa & Minnesota Are Ours...
Iowa has been solid Democratic in every election since '88 (Yep, they voted for Dukakis). The run-up in fuel prices is hurting this state badly.

Wisconsin still has a very strong Progressive streak that is getting energized by the mess this regime has created and a depressed industrial and farming economy. Also there have been some demographic shifts...city folks moving out into the Repugnican hinterlands. Don't forget Russ Feingold's up for re-election as well and this could have a positive effect for Kerry.

Lastly, Minnesotans know they have to make ammends for that tool Coleman and the Wellstone fiasco. What's a nicer payback than to give the manchild a good thrashing. The DFL looks like it's united and ready to regain it's strength at Junior's detriment.

Ohio, Missouri and West Virigina are the keys. Win those and Jebbie can go Chenney himself. I also think there's a solid chance to push Nevada and Arizona as well as New Hampshire.

Pundit have said repeatedly that this election will break in the last couple weeks...and if the current trends hold, several, if not all of these stays will break our way.
