A really great way to show why Ohio is so important:
1. Give the democrats Wisconsin (I don't know why people are treating it as a swing state)
2. Give the democrats Ohio
3. Give the democrats any other state (except New Hampshire)
Basically, as long as Obama takes Ohio, Obama wins.
- james-skemp 14y agoRe Wisconsin, as someone who has lived in the state all his life, and been confident that we'd elect a Democrat as president since the mid-90s (and definitely in the last 12+ years I've been voting), I believe the state is swinging. Walker's recall showed how red the state is, once the people outside Madison and Milwaukee actually vote. (Disclaimer: I live in Madison, and commented to others that I didn't realize Wisconsin had turned red.) Obama is back in Madison shortly, but he really needs to head up to the north of the state. Unless he thinks he can carry it by getting the vote out in obviously blue areas. On the other hand, I don't think he can sway people in two days, so getting people excited where he knows a vote will be a vote for him might be the best bet.
