Is the midwest crucial for victory?

[Democratic Hawk]

That's why I think a Feingold / Bayh ticket has promise. If they take IA, WI, MN, MI, OH, and PA, they win.

I think a Bayh/Feingold ticket has greater promise

I think Bayh has a better chance of picking up Missouri and Ohio, than Feingold, which is why he should top the ticket. He should bring Indiana along as well.

Unless the GOP nominee is from the Mid-West than Bayh could sweep the region with the exception of Kentucky (and even there he'll have a better chance than most Dems)
