That is usually the best sign that a state isn't in play. I rarely see political ads here in Jersey from either candidate, which is usually a good meter to see which way a state is going, and Oregon is going Blue, no matter how much Ed wishes it was still a Red logging state.
AFAIK, NH is toss up with leaning towards Romney... I know lot of NH guys and it seems like most of them are going Romney way... All said and done, i give it to Romney BUT it can go any way as of now...
The polls are just confusing to me from last 3 weeks cuz of the lead and MOE.. What polls suggest with leads in the range MOE is that they see a lean towards one candidate but its not fore sure??
I have no insights in VA and the polls show otherwise.. So VA is RED in the map....
But all said and done, its a nail bitter..
Silver puts it at 53.5% Romney. On Friday, it was 51.3% Obama. We have a huge advantage in VR and a bigger GOTV operation than Romney, so I'm fairly optimistic about our chances in the Old Dominion state. Me, my wife and my sister canvassed about 100 houses in Northern Virginia alone. I never realized how diverse that part of the state is. There were a whole lot of Hispanics, a lot of Asians and a lot of Ethiopians. And this wasn't Arlington or Falls Church. This was a good distance south of Lorton.
We don't need Virginia, but it would be a nice back-breaking Touchdown.

I love seeing that, I like that Northern Virginia is growing and making Virginia more blue, I would love to see Virginia move back to the Democrat side.

Well, FiveThirtyEight has it 63% Obama right now and he has an RCP lead of +2.1. NH is always one of those states that looks iffy for Dems in the run up to Election Day, but then goes blue.

Yeah, it was interesting to see. On the one hand, you have these really rural, sparsely populated stretches with a fair number of Romney signs in yards. Then you turn off of the main road and you have these densely populated, townhome subdivisions with younger white families, Hispanics, Asians and some blacks. And those neighborhoods have nothing but Obama signs. The immigrant, transplant population is really drowning out Old Virginny.
