Obama’s commanding lead

Twenty days before the election, the RCP national average shows Obama 8.1 points ahead of McCain, 50.2 to 42.1.

The RCP electoral picture is devastating to the Republicans:

Obama 313; McCain 158; Toss-up 67.

Florida, Colorado, and Virginia (Virginia!) are in the Obama column. Obama is 6.5 points ahead in Virginia. Ohio, the state that decided the exciting 2004 election (not that the candidates were exciting, but the election was), is a toss-up, but Obama is 3.4 point ahead there.
