CNN's Election Tracker: NO BLUE TOSSUPS!
Not a single KErry state is in the tossup category any longer on CNN's Election Tracker:

http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/map/polling/

Plus, they have Ohio, Iowa, AND Florida BLUE!

Better yet, Electoral-vote now has it Obama 349,McCain 174, Tes 15.

Missouri is blue on their map!

1. CNN has a new batch of polls out today.
Mostly good news for Obama. This convinced them to adjust their map to more blue.

2. Colorado flipped again on e-v, too.
Trend line shows a slight blue advantage in CO. (Nothing like MO's blue trend line though.) This is Hugh. ;)

3. CNN
Now all Kerry States and the Gore States the Kerry Lost(Iowa and New Mexico) are In the Obama
column and they have Florida and Virginia too In the Obama column.This means right Now Obama would have the Electoral votes needed even If he lost all the tossup States(Nevada,Colorado,Missouri,Ohio,
North Carolana)and funny how Obama now does better with the CNN map than the MSNBC map.

6. His job is dependent upon a close race
IF he shows all the Kerry states as true blue, he is no longer needed.

7. The CNN data is a little too close for my comfort.
I like the "58% Economy" on the Issues pie chart, though! :thumbsup:

9. RCP's closest Kerry state is WI, with a 6.7 point lead for Obama.
They all look pretty save at the moment.

But there are 8 bush states within 5% and 2 additional Bush states were Obama leads by more than 5% (IA, NM).

10. WV is 50-46 for McCain, and it's red.
NV is 51-47 for Obama, and it's NOT blue. Why is that?

11. Because, if they gave him NV then he'd have 270 and the point of their map would be over
stupid reason... but I assume that is it.
