Can McCain Win?

With the election two weeks away, many people are saying this election is still too close to call. Many Obama supporters are already clamming victory, and that McCain is already sounding the defeat call. However Obama has learned a lesson before about getting hopes up before all the votes are counted. Today many polls put the Electoral College back into play, saying that Obama surge in the economy has slowed down. In Ohio and Florida McCain has regained the lead in these must wins areas. Also Virginia and North Carolina signs of hope of McCain winning have return. With Nevada, Missouri, and a possible win in Colorado McCain could win this election. Recent polls have put FL, OH, NC, NV, and MO back into the column of McCain, temporarily, and have put CO and VA as a tossup. For Republican this is a sign of hope, for Obama this is a sign of repeating history. We saw in the 2000 Presidential Election that many states that were leaning a certain way ended up not going that way. Polls have been wrong before, and many believe that the popular vote in the end will be fairly close. Obama doesn’t have to sweet yet, since McCain seems to really want to carry PA. But if McCain wins OH, FL, and PA then victory is almost guarantee. This election is not yet over, and I am still hesitant in the winner. The one thing I can tell you is this, that is the economy didn’t decline, McCain would have won this election. McCain has done a great job overcoming the Bush odds, but even a maverick can’t overcome the GOP economic problems.
