1. I read on here that Obama only needs to win 1 battleground state to be over the top
Is that still holding true?

2. It's sort of a complicated formula

with Ohio emerging as the 'swing' state again -- IF Obama fails to win states like Missouri or edge out McCain in states like Colorado or New Mexico.

McCain, Obama in the Battlegrounds

Despite the turnaround in the polls, both candidates know this thing is far from over, as evidenced by where they are campaigning today.

McCain is with Palin in Missouri, which the RCP Average has at McCain +7; Obama, meanwhile, is in Michigan, which is at Obama +4.3. And Joe Biden is off on his own in Wisconsin, Obama +7.2.
