McCain Reported Pulling Resources From Michigan
October 3 - 7:45 PM

The number of states still in play in next month's Presidential election are dwindling rapidly. Until recent weeks considered a key swing state, Michigan is now seen as strongly Obama, with one recent poll giving him a 51-38 lead over McCain.

Now Politico reports from two sources that the McCain campaign is shutting down most activities in the state and shifting resources to other battleground states. Important states still considered in play include Ohio, Florida, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Pennsylvania - and Maine, where a single congressional elector is in play.

CQ Politics currently rates the race as 265 Obama, 213 McCain, with 70 still unclear - and 271 electoral votes required to win. While the McCain campaign is still focusing on the six states mentioned above, CQ rates all but Ohio and Florida as unclear - with the rest tending to Obama.

Sadly, McCain has no chance at all unless we get another Pastor Wright-style bombshell, or worse.

Maybe, but the word is that McCain is getting ready to go to the mattresses. The main doesn't know he's already dead.

Not according to what I heard. One study said Obama's ads were running 77% negative, but McCain's are only 56% negative.
