McCain Focuses On Three States
Mike Allen's report sounds grim:
Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) now must win Pennsylvania, Wisconsin or Minnesota in order to get enough electoral votes to win the presidency, his campaign says.
Those were considered swing states in 2000 and 2004, but George W. Bush lost them both times.
“Our ability to pick off one of those three states is where our fortunes are largely held,” a McCain official said. “These are states where Barack Obama is on the defense.”
The assumption:
“We feel strongly that we’re going to win in Florida, Missouri and the
traditional Republican states of Virginia and North Carolina.”
