You have no idea what are you talking about.

I lived in West Virginia for 3 years of my life, I am familar with the history and politics of the state, and with the right situation and the right national popular vote margin, Obama can win WV.

The secret service deemed it unsafe for Obama to even campaign in.

That state is 60 years behind the rest of america.

Everything I see is from Sept.  McCain led by an average of 5.5 points.

Obama has held three events in the state this year - two in March and one in May.

Please don't just make shit up.

It seems like just yesterday that Obama had an "Appalachia problem".  People were saying that West Virginia would be nearly as Republican as Utah and Idaho.

Of course, Obama also had a "Latino problem" before polls starting showing him getting 70%+ of the Latino vote.

If the election turns into a bloodbath, I could see Obama winning WV. Otherwise it will be like 2000 or 2004.

I'll say it again: Primary returns do not imply anything about the general.
