Seems pretty conservative. Virginia could go either way, but it will be hard for John McCain to pick up many of the other states you give to Barack Obama. Even if he picked up Minnesota and another state as well, he'd wouldn't get enough electoral votes.

I'm assuming Florida will again be rigged, but I suspect the DHL thing will put Obama over the top in Ohio, and Biden will help him win Pennsylvania. I think it's more likely that I've underestimated Obama's final tally than that I've overestimated it.
