A big part of this comes down to Ohio. If he can't win Ohio, he has to nearly run the table on every other state. The polls coming out of Ohio and a few other states are the only ones that matter and the only ones the campaigns look at.

That seems to be what I see on the news. It's like every state is already either Dem or Repub except a few like Ohio.
I wonder if that's really true? How the heck did Obama carry the Repub states in the last election though? Or Bush carry the Dem states in the past?
Or did they just happen to win the swing states only (other than the states the media are telling us are pre-determined)?
I'm really starting to question the poll numbers and charts from the media. They were way off-base on that recall vote in Wisconsin. Hell, Ed Shulz on MSNBC was actually broadcasting outside the capital in Wisconsin when that vote happened and gleefully showing exit poll numbers that they had and claiming it was all over. lol
Then the next day he looked like somebody had took his lunch money or something.
