I live in Michigan. I don't care what any polls say. I would put money on the fact that McCain won't win here; even if he picked Jesus as his running mate. Our economy is in the toilet. It's currently one of the worst in the entire nation. We haven't voted Republican since 1988, and with our state in the shape it is now; I doubt that will happen this year. Some of the most staunch Republicans that I know have said they're seriously considering voting for Obama because they feel McCain doesn't understand what's going on. I understand that it will be likely be close here, but I think hell would freeze over before McCain could win my state.
The Romney family is very popular in Michigan. All the polls right now are very close. I'm thinking Michigan is a lot like Ohio and Indiana, both likely Republican states this year. The economy is hurting, but the Democratic governor (I would imagine) is probably getting a lot of the blame. If Romney is the VP, I think they can pull off not only Michigan but the whole election.
