Two pollsters give Obama 260 EV. My guess is that he will end up with over 300 EV. Pollster: Obama 260 McCain 176 Toss-up 102 http://pollster.com/ Zogby: Obama 260 McCain 173 Toss-up 105 http://www.zogby.com/50state/

1. I'm honestly not sure if the high number of undecideds helps Obama or hurts him. |

On the one hand, it would be hard to imagine anyone converting to McCain at this point. But on the other hand, one shouldn't underestimate the gullibility of the "unsure" voter - despite the recent flurry of Obama coverage, McCain is still more well-known to the general public. And people who aren't aware of his true nature (thanks in part to the media's soft-pedaling of him) may see him as a comforting, grandfatherly figure, in contrast to the "scary black man" (which is a laughable notion in Obama's case, but still floating there in the background) on the Dem side.
