Since there is so much interest in the final hours between now and

Even reliably red Montana in play as Election Day looms

(CNN) – Call it the battle for Big Sky country. George W. Bush won Montana by 20 points in his re-election victory four years ago. But it seems the times have changed in the state.
CNN's new Electoral College map, updated Sunday morning, moves Montana from "lean John McCain" to "toss up." ... more

I didn't know his aunt from Kenya spoke Spanish.
