There is no way the Democrats win in Georgia. The only reason it's considered "too close to call" is because in that state someone must have 50% and the republican has 49.8%, the democrat around 47% and the libertarian almost 3%. In a run-off, who do you think those libertarians are voting for?
Also it's highly unlikely Alaska goes Dem. Stevens leads by a little under 4,000 votes with 40,000 absentee ballots (traditionally heavy Republican) left to be counted.
Minnesota and Oregon are viable chances though. But still, I don't think any sane person gives the democrats a punter's chance to win all 4 of those.
