Crumpled Thoughts

I thought I’d make a prediction on how this race will end up, mostly to see how close I call it on November 5th.  I really think it’s shaping up to be a landslide.  The Obama campaign has been incredibly well organized and gaining ground in many swing states.  I gave Obama Florida because I think the Real Estate market (or crisis) there is giving him an edge over McCain.  I also gave Obama Colorado because I think there is a large group of people not being represented in the polls which tend to be more likely to support Obama (the younger voters).

Here’s my prediction.  Obama 320, McCain 218

This is how it breaks down:

Of course, there is a real possibility I’m completely wrong.  History will be the judge of that.
