It won't be 2004 forever.

This is a Change Election.  I don't know how likely it is for Obama to do better than Kerry, but I do think things may change in ways that we didn't expect.  Kentucky voted for Clinton, don't forget.  And Kentucky now has a Democratic Governor.  We'll see.

I know it won't.  I was expecting Obama to underperform Kerry, not a repeat of 2004.
I was kinda joking.  That's been a running theme around here.  I agree with you though.  I thought Kentucky was trending to the right and that Obama's not a great fit for the state.  That said, it's a state with some Democratic roots, that aren't fully gone, a poor economy that could benefit Democrats, and one that has shown a willingness to vote Democratic in other statewide races, so... you never know.

I'd expect McCain wins by 15 points, personally.
