I feel that these states are the most likely to end up deciding the election, all ending up rather close. So right now, which of these states do you feel will go to Obama come election day?

I'll say CO and NM for now. I really don't see VA or OH flipping.

Right now I agree, just barely, but Ohio is really giving me problems, considering how close it was in '04 and how royally ruined the Republican party is to voters in that state. If Obama steps up the populist rhetoric I feel like it's very winnable for him, especially if any questions about McCain's conservative bona fides arise. I feel like the Obama campaign probably has it within them to pull out a win here, but they just aren't showing what they got yet, so McCain's small structural advantage trumps.

All and then some.  I predict a >3% Obama win.

Then again I sometimes make bold predictions just for the hell of it.

Walter should really get a job writing writing for Cracked magazine.

Anyway, I'll give Obama NM and CO. CO is scaring me a little lately though.

I'll give McCain the benefit of the doubt in VA given it's history in Presidential elections.

You can flip a coin for Ohio. Racism v. economic desperation.

Ohio, very narrowly.
New Mexico by 1%
Colorado by about 2%

He'll end up losing Virginia by about .5%

None of them will go for Obama, with the possible exception of Colorado.

Obama will lose about 1/3 of the Kerry-won states also..

God must be ashamed of our nation!

None.  I think he is going to lose this election in a big way now.  Unless Obama somehow figures out how to fight dirty like the Republicans.  And I haven't seen any sign of it in him yet.
