As Ohio goes ... the nation may not go

A good analysis of the 08 Campaign from PolitickerOH's Justin Miller..

"Is Ohio's reign as the single must win state for the presidency over?

As a handful of states across the country show fresh signs of swinging from one partisan column to another, it appears that Barack Obama and possibly John McCain could lose Ohio and still win the presidency.

Using the 2004 electoral map as a foundation, Obama could lose Ohio and win three Western states he's targeted prominently: Colorado, New Mexico and Nevada. The total electoral votes from those three states are one short of Ohio's 20, but taking them from McCain would give Obama 271 votes in the Electoral College - one more than he needs to win. Alternatively, Obama could win Iowa and add either Virginia or Missouri to survive and Ohio loss."
