Looks like McCain needs a bailout - Intrade: O: 81.7 M: 18.9 (and dropping)

I think this is McCain's low water mark and Obama's highest. Investors are not too confident in McCain doing anything to help himself tonight or anytime in the next 20 days.

That says as much as any poll.

OH, and CNN now has VA by 10 points. I kid you not... VA is going to us by double digits.

7. Yes. I agree VA is going blue - not sure about double digits but heck, who knows.

The demographics have really changed in VA as was evidenced by the Webb victory in 06. Plus the "Mark Warner" effect will also give Obama some extra points. It will be just fantastic to see a VA blue on Nov 4th!
