red states vs. blue states.

I may not put much stock in election year polling, but I have to admit that this site is quite interesting. It analyzes polling data across the country to predict the outcome of the Nov. 2 presidential election. According to today's report, Bush is leading Kerry by a relatively comfortable margin, but that could change depending on which direction states like Ohio, Michigan, and other swing states fall.

Again, it's hard to put much stock into this site because this election is going to be unique. One factor that could throw everything is the number of new registered voters. Across the nation, registration is up. Does that mean they all will vote? No. And it certainly doesn't predict which way they will vote. However, this site gives a little hint into the pulse of the nation.
