Assuming that they are (or will) voting early at the same rate is the biggest difference from the last election, where early voters were like 5-10% more Bush voters than Kerry voters.
Early voting at the same rate generally hurts the candidate who is behind (in this case, McCain)...it means less potential votes to swing at the last minute.
