Update: The 5-90-95 Expressway to Victory
Way back on June 20, I dreamed of an Electoral College map for Obama that rode the I-5 I-90 I-95 expressway to victory:
Of course we're not there yet, but we're getting close!
Montana, North Dakota, North Carolina, and Florida are tossups, while Georgia is pink. The only solid red state that stands in the way of my fantasy map is South Carolina. Sweet!

North Dakota has never got out of The 1930 Depression!
The Population of ND in 1920 was 646,872, and in 2007 it was 639,715. In eighty seven years ND has literally been losing Population, we have not grown like the rest of the Country, there seems to be a missed connection between what Gov. Hoeven (R) and Congressman Pomeroy (D) are telling us, it does seem that all their energy is mostly for farmers and business and the working people have to fend for themselves. Like in education; we educate our children and ND runs them off as soon as they become of age, and Governor Hoeven and Mr. Pomeroy get on TV and say they are promoting jobs, the history of our State contradict this statement. North Dakota has more Millionaires per Capita and more poor people per Capita then any State in the Union, we have very few middle class people, this leave me with a very big question; whom do we blame for this dilemma? It starts right at the top of our Political chain and believe me it is rotten to the core, we are suppose to have a two party system which we the voters can differentiate between, but when I see Senator Conrad parading as a Bush Democrat in which he has voted with Bush 90% of the time, he voted for the bailout, not because of the bill itself but for the “pork” which was added. It does seem that he only votes for bills with “pork”; Senator Conrad and Pomeroy are only in office for themselves and not for all of the ND people, just special interest groups. We pay them very good wages to represent ND in Washington and not for them too vote for what lobbyist wants.
With this “Crisis” the Senate couldn’t just vote on the $700B bailout Bill they had to add pork to it, like “wood arrows” and “Rum”, this is what we get when they have Lobbyist from Wall Street write bills for them!
Congressman Pomeroy also voted for this bill, he is known as a rubber stamp for Bush, I can’t see why he calls himself a Democrat, why doesn’t he just switch parties instead of running around as a counterfeit Democrat like Lieberman? If we have a Democratic Party in this State, where are they?
I just wonder if the test states...
test states for the voting machines helped get these smaller officials in over the years, before going public.
I smell a basement of rats and rotting republiConmen corpses.
Time to Raise the Blue Tsunami, with video footage of people disenfranchised and posted on YouTube, right away. We must have pictures of the perpertrators, if you have to get the footage of the person who did it on the footage, after they come past the 40ft margin. Take exit polls of the supporters who showed up for Barack after they vote and are past the margin by law. Do not wear your shirt right side out, turn it inside out and when you come out turn it back around for the cameras.
Barack On and get all the rats out. We need progress NOW, and we don't need any more Elephant turd blossoms, in our way.

It ain't a goal if it's not written down.
I like the map Bob ;)
What about South Dakota?
In any case, it looks like Obama's picking up other states to make up for the ones he's not picking up, and like Steve Cobble's strategy of prioritizing the Southwest over the Southeast may have either been followed or been worth following or both.
Sadly there's less of a clean break this way, however, should we choose to create Greater Canada and Jesus Land as separate nations.
