Swing states for candidates (odds are better that states will swing McCain than Obama)
Could swing to McCain - WI, MN, IO, MI, PEN - I am currently leaning toward both WI and MI going to McCain
Could swing to Obama - NM, NV, CO, FL, VA, OH - I am currently leaning toward NM, CO, and NV going to Obama (FL, VA, OH are long shots at best)
