Electoral Vote O/U

[HedgeHog]

The new Pres needs to get at least 270 of the 538 electoral votes. Perhaps SBR can think of a contest for this tomorrow. For now, here's my O/U--which way are you betting?

Obama Over 305.5 -115
Obama Under 305.5 -115

(max $300)

What would be your bet...and double your winnings for free if you can name the exact final. I have Obama 305-233.

I know this might sound crazy...but give me the over for 300 and i would predict 309

Over for the max, 338-200

340-198

Early money seems to be on the Over!

PS Where are the McCain bettors?

I think it comes down to the Ohio/Florida votes. Obama doesn't HAVE to take 1, but if he does, it's over (assuming he wins PA). There is a scenario where he can brick PA, Florida and Ohio and still make it with some luck (270-268). I secretly want the tie scenario where he takes down Nevada - and the vote goes to the House...

I will take the over and 318-220 with Obama squeeking out Florida, PA, Iowa, Colorado, Nevada and NM...
While losing Indiana and Ohio, which I think it would take a miracle for him to win, frankly. I could see a scenario, also, where Obama does not get many of those swing states listed. It's plausable for him to lose PA.

If Obama picks off Indiana somehow (one of the first states to report), I think it's safe to say it's going to be a complete and utter disaster for McCain.
