If you believe that McCain would win Massachusetts in the 08 general election against any Democrat at all, then you are seriously deluded, my friend, and the polls aren't worth snot.

It’s possible with the right tide, for sure. You need to stop thinking of the miniscule numbers Bush put up versus Gore and Kerry (who was a fav. son). McCain is a totally different electoral beast with more independent and even democrat reach than Bush could ever dream of. He would put Vermont in play as well and carry NH in a walk.
