Pulling some numbers out of my ass, I think that in any given election, you have 45% of the people who will vote D no matter what, 45% of the people who will vote R no matter what, and of the remaining 10%, they are predisposed to go 65-35 to the GOP.

The 65-35 split is well off IMO. Since Reagan we've been a split or nearly split country. A few hundred votes in FL could make this an election for a fifth consecutive Dem term.
