Bush has little room for error now -- must win Wisconsin |
|
Bush is writing off Ohio. Their strategy apparently is to replace those electoral votes by concentrating on Iowa, New Mexico and Wisconsin.
In order for Bush to win this, he is going to have to win Florida. Plus, he must take Wisconsin and either Iowa or New Mexico.
So if we win Wisconsin, Bush is toast.

That Bush wins Nevada, Colorado, West Virginia, Missouri, Arkansas and Virginia.

are probably a good bet. We get a break in CO if the ballot initiative passes (4 more EVs for us).

7. Bush hasn't been to Ohio in weeks and has just one stop planned |
|
The rest of his schedule is mostly Iowa, Wisconsin and NM.

13. Let's be factual here; he was in Canton the other day. |
|
I do agree that they are in some trouble there, but they have been campaigning in the state.

|
That's why they weren't going there more.

14. The CEO of Diebold promised Bush those electoral votes |
|
he may be able to deliver.
It's not about who casts the votes, it's all about who COUNTS the votes!

8. And I presume this means |
|
they have written off Minnesota. (unfortunately the ad market for the Twin Cities hits Wisconsin, so we'll probably still see ads.)

16. If Kerry wins Ohio, Minnesota, and Wisconsin, he's president. |
|
Wisconsin is a MUST win for both sides. Of course, if Kerry can overcome Jeb, and win Florida, he doesn't need Wisconsin. But, I wouldn't count on that.
C'mon Cheeseheads, do your part for the country and the world: dump Bush*.

18. Kerry will be in WI twice this week |
|
Green Bay on Monday & Madison on Thursday (w/ special guest The Foo Fighters).
Michael Moore has been stumping across WI all day.
Our local office has been lining up volunteers for the last push. Major phone work today. My wife is even taking our kids out canvassing this week.
