10 days to go!

I think its fairly safe to say that its never really been close in Oklahoma. In my last post I alluded to the staunch Republican base that inhabits Oklahoma, and the assurance they'll vote Republican again this election despite a Democratic governor and a weak Republican presidential candidate.
Pollster reports a 30 point lead for McCain in polling, the Arizona senator leading Obama 62% to 32%. Pretty much all of the polls reported on the sight show a similar theme. Obama never stood a chance in the state and his lack of a campaign there is evidence that he is well aware of the fact.
With ten days to go, Oklahoma will be casting there 7 electoral votes for Senator McCain this election, although much of the country will be going against them.

Oklahomans stand firmly Republican

The Obama mania sweeping the country is apparently not resonating in the small state of Oklahoma and when Oklahomans go to the polls on November 4 they are expected to do nothing less than cast all of their elector votes in favor of Senator McCain and Governor Palin.
Although their governor is Democratic, the people of Oklahoma hate big government and taxes; two things expected to draw them towards the Republican candidate once again.
According to a USA Today article, the one place where Obama does seem to be getting support is on college campuses, representing a widening generational gap.
Despite small pockets of support for Obama however, there still doesn't look to be much contest here on election day.
