Obama is popular among Democrats, so the blue states should stay blue. He is attracting huge numbers of independents and even moderate Republicans to come over and vote for him. I think he could carry as many as 38-40 states against McCain (unless McCain can find a way to connect with the base, and fast).
McCain has an almost unbeatable opponent if it is Obama (assuming Hillary doesn't scuttle the Democratic ship along the way).

I hope Dems believe it's unbeatable, just Dewey thought against FDR, with us getting the last laugh.
Bush lost almost universally all black votes and still eeked out a victory. Some of his voting record issues will be open fodder, just you see. The rest of the country is not as liberal as the Democratic Party.
