We still have to work for it, but for the record, I am going to make the following predictions for the election. If you, too, help work for it, these things (and more!) will come to pass:

John McCain states, in a similar order: KY, SC, MS, OK, AL, TN, AR, WY, SD, NE, KS, LA, TX, WV, UT, AZ (barely), ID, AK for a total of 142 electoral votes
