Obviously it's still very early, but right now, from what I'm reading, Republicans look to take all of those states except Colorado which could still go either way. Some of those states like Ohio, Iowa, and Nevada will go hard Republican IMO.

Could someone calculate the electoral votes of those swing states? So where are Obummer's poll numbers weak? in the key swing states?

But the problem is for the republicans is that their candidates are George Bush clones and Ron Paul who is up against 100 years of Government tradition.
