Any other election year and Sen. John "F--- You" making a play for California would be laughed off. But, not this year as Jim Geregthy posts:
California's Not Going to Be In Play... Right?
Rasmussen puts McCain within 7 of Obama in California, within 5 of Hillary.
I'm really, really skeptical that California will be competitive this year. Bush lost by 10 points in 2004, lost it by 12 points in 2000.
But note that if McCain were to somehow pull of an enormously upset win in California, it would not only all but guarantee his victory, it would ensure a landslide. Those 54 electoral votes are pretty much irreplaceable for the Democrats.

Now, I can not be certain that my fellow not-so Golden Staters will ink the vote for Sen. "F--- You" McCain, but the fact that neither Democrat is in a double-digit lead at this point should be troublesome for the Dems. Also, Gov. Arnold will defiantly campaign aggressively with Sen. "F--- You" McCain, unlike the Ohio foray in 2004. Gov. Arnold is a disappointment for many a Republican here, but resonates with the mushy middle and even a few Democrats.
So, maybe Sen. McCain is on to something. Also, one can not rule anything out since last year at this time, Sen. "F--- You" McCain was on life support.
