Back then, McCain was surging and the race was basically tied.
These days, this:

I'm not necessarily aligning myself with what Will proposed in this thread, but if the election were held today and McCain won, it would be almost unthinkable that widespread fraud wouldn't be behind it. The pollsters and statisticians say that in something like 99.5% of trial heats based on current polling, Obama wins. We've got a couple weeks to go and anything can still happen, but if the election were TODAY, it would take vast electoral shenanigans for McCain to win.
