Electoral Problems

Here's a problem I see:

What makes it worthwhile to go after Florida? We lost Florida by 400,000 or so. We lost Missouri by 200,000; Iowa by 10,000; New Mexico by 6,000; and Colorado by 100,000. The margin of loss in those 4 states combined was smaller than all of Florida. 316<400.

So, is it at all logical then to pursue those four states more than we go after Florida? Obviously, FL is a big prize and we should contest it, but how should the campaign money be allocated?

Of course, we have 3 years for lots of things to change. Everything could be completely different in 2008.
