so how much should Obama get against Keyes? |
|
let's see, suburban moderates won't vote for Keyes, especially not the soccer moms with his fringe right views on social issues. neither will rednecks downstate. Or people who just don't like carpetbaggers.
Obama could top 60%

3. Obama should still run his campaign, though. |
|
If Obama doesn't take Keyes seriously, and run his campaign accordingly, Keyes could do some damage even if the voters regect him outright.
Of course, I really want to see Obama shred Keyes in a debate. That's just frosting.

4. yes, I agree. The bigger the landslide Obama gets the better |
|
it'll really help his image as a rising star. He needs to run a hard campaign so he just walks away with this election. Imagine if he wins DuPage!

About 35% of the electorate is probably hardcore repuke and will vote for whoever has an R next to their name.
Also seeing as Obama has no chance of loosing and Kerry is virtually assured victory in IL, that will probably depress turnout which will tend to benefit Republicans. Obviously not enough to make close, but I'd be surprised to see Keyes get under 35%.
