As a current citizen of northern Virginia, I'm not surprized that we've made the yellow. If only it came with a Springsteen concert....

Your mention of Indiana is interesting. I grew up there and follow the state's political scene. There hasn't been much polling in Indiana recently. The June-July results reported Bush slipping under 50% and more than 20% undecided. So the opportunity is there for K/E to exploit. Richmond, Fort Wayne, South Bend and the Chicago region are getting spillover from Ohio/Michigan advertising. I'd love for Kerry, Edwards or Obama to visit Indianapolis and Gary, then watch for movement in the numbers. (Oh yeah, every time I call Noblesville and talk to my parents, I try to convince them to vote Democratic. For the first time in 40 years my mother is bending....)

There's nothing undecided about Indiana. Or Louisiana for that matter. Those will be Bush states.

Also, Wisconsin has something like a 2 point margin. That's hardly a blue state quite yet.

Remember what I said from my first blog, is that the race is wide open. I have my hunches. Thats all, I think Indiana and Louisiana will be hard to get, but on the other hand I think George Bush is one of the most hated presidents in American history.
