When a friend and I talked about the election many months ago, I predicted that President Bush would win without fail.

I will stand by that.

But, I am getting a bit worried now.

Well, I guessed optimistic; but I'll stand by my earlier prediction on THR...

Bush 51%
Kerry 48%

Senate Republicans: +2/+3
House Republicans: +5/+6

Bush takes Ohio and Florida and at least two states Gore won in 2000. Voter turnout right around 111 million.

No estimate on electoral votes since there are just too many possible outcomes; but very few of those possibilities look good for Kerry and they are all long odds.

As for cyanide's 300 EV prediction for Kerry, Kerry can only top 300 votes by winning every RCP contested state except NH.  So the chances of cyanide's prediction coming true depend on one of two things:

1) Every single pollster in the United States horribly underestimating the Dem turnout for this election

2) Kerry winning a 50/50 coin-toss six times in a row.

Bush with 300 EVs, +-5%

Thanks to loonie candidates like the LP, GP, etc, neither side will get 50% of the popular vote.

A run-off system in the future would be nice, to keep 3rd parties out of Presidential politics untill they can demonstrate enough support...

He can take 50% +1 vote in 45 states, and only get a single vote in the other 5 states, and win.

But seriously, I really tink he'll get 45 states.

I kind of doubt it.  I'm getting the impression no one is listening.  It looks like most people have already made up their mind, that Kerry already was a c**ksmoker and planned on voting for him anyway.  

My prediction is neither get 270 electoral votes, congress hands it to Bush, and we get 4 more years of the most bitter partisanship we'll see in our lifetimes.   I don't care if CCW's are impossible to get in Kali, I'm strapping Nov 3 - ?

Bush 49.296% of Popular vote with 296 EC votes.

If he wraps up Ohio, Florida, Wisconcin and Iowa and its called early I think he will win Oregon and washington bringing his total to

50.259% of popular vote with 314 EC votes. Hawii could take it to 318

Thats my prediction and I'm sticking to it.
