with Huchabee he might be able to ofsort the Hispanic turnout for Obama and keep Arizona

Huck has adopted a hardline anti-illegal stance, and would almost certainly face a dramatic asskicking in metro Phoenix. He's not exactly the best Republican to appeal to the west.

What do you think his ceiling is in your state? I'd say even if Obama loses +10 Huckabee doesn't get over 45% in either OR or WA.

I'd agree; he is just about the worst Republican candidate imaginable for the Northwest. He would only play well in places that are sparsely populated and solidly GOP in any case. It would be very ugly for him in the cities (o/c) and suburbs, where the votes are.
