    Sure I am. The two major candidates can make things close, like a minor candidate never can. Stranger things have happened in close elections. If you want to decide by polls . . . then Obama already has more than the needed 270 electoral votes. No point in any of us voting.

    Oh, I see. Projected voting shows Louisiana as a red state so I'm wasting my vote you say since the electors will likely go to McCain. On the other hand, the same projected votes, that show Obama with 277 electoral votes--already enough to insure victory, . . . well, we can't count those. :lol:

    There is a marked difference in projecting 1 state that is a sure thing and projecting every state some of which are not sure things.

    Projectin' is projectin'. Don't mean shee-it until the hanging chads are counted and the Supreme Court ignores the Constitution.
