I may submit a map later, but in the mean time it's important to remember that Bloomberg has hinted that he'd be willing to spend $500 million of his own money on an independent candidacy.  That's more than what Bush and Kerry combined spent in 2004.  That kind of money would make a hell of an impact.

Recent reports (althoug they were from the Washington Times so I don't know how trustworthy they are) say Bloomberg may be willing to even spend a billion.

The election goes to the House, where the Democrats are likely to still be in control after the 2008 elections, therefore, making John Edwards President.  As well, the Democrats will likely still be in control of the Senate after the 2008 elections, therefore, making Mark Warner Vice President.
