We may lose New Mexico? I don’t think we lost it last time did we? I definitely think we win the popular vote but I am not sure about the electoral...it is going to be too close for comfort. We should have chosen a conservative.

Obama carried New Mexico easily--he added 100,000 votes to Kerry's total. Bush carried the state by about 6,000 votes in 2004 and lost it by a few hundred votes in 2000 (one of the states where people suspected shenanigans may have made the difference in 2000).

Hard to see how South Carolina is a toss-up. Gingrich voters who are going to stay home?
