8. Georgia.
Slight outside chance the pundits have wildly miscalculated voter registration as well as turnout.

Would love to see that happen.

Very unlikely though.

10. Oh, any of the "weak GOP" states
Edited on Tue Oct-07-08 12:44 PM by Warpy
like Mississippi, Georgia, or Texas. Even NC will shock me a little, and it's a tossup there.

None of those would make me soil myself, but winning the whole moron corridor (Texas north through North Dakota) might make me fall out of my chair.

13. Arkansas turning Blue
I saw several cars in Hot Springs, Arkansas that had bumpers "I miss Bill" then later on, many Hillary signs and stickers. Then McCain/Palin signs, but lately they seem to have disappeared mysteriously.

17. I would be shocked if he took any of the 'slave states.'
I keep reading that the polls show Obama has the lead in Virginia

and North Carolina. Please. I lived in North Carolina and every

third pick-up truck had a confederate swastika on it. Cars and

trucks there still sport bush/cheney stickers. If he won those

states, well shut my mouth I would be stunned.
