"Let's get something straight, McCain has ZERO chance to win California or New York...He is way too socially conservative to even be competitive there, & will lose those 2 states by at least 10%, probably more....He also has no chance in NJ, IL, MA, (and a host of smaller ones as well)....
McCain is nothing but the 3rd. Bush term & he deserves to get destroyed in November....."
Granted, Senator McCain is not likely to win California or New York. But to suggest that he will lose Florida by at least 10% is simply not rooted in reality. Poll after poll has come out showing Obama to be disliked by Floridians and he couldn't even win the Ohio primary. Pennsylvania and Michigan are on the table, too. And you're totally discounting the undeniable fact that there is racial polarization in this election (even yesterday's supposed big win for Barack Obama saw him losing the white vote 61%-37% in NC and 60%-40% in Indiana) and he's viewed very suspiciously by older voters and Hispanics too.
Even if Senator McCain were a 3rd Bush term, there's at least 40% or 45% of the population that would vote for him regardless. But Senator McCain is his own man and I predict he will win.
