Obama would never win against Mccain.
might as well all stay home then.
Obama would never win against Mccain.
How he can compare Sudetenland to anything happening now is beyond me...
And the Chris Matthews interview was fantastic, what an idiot that radio talk show host is, people like him think that yelling and repeating some catch phrases makes it correct
Obama won't win against Mccain. At the last moment people will balk at voting for him. All this talk of change is just talk. At the end of the day most people will realise they don't actually want change, atleast they don't want to risk stability for change. Unlike other countries there are no regular terror threats in US. Mccain would seem the safe choice. They will know what they are getting. Obama is out there, he will get the hippy votes and independents will root for him all the way to the election but stop short at voting for him at the last moment.
Hillary would have won easily against Mccain.
Olbermann is class
It seems a bit too late to "resign" from a church (whatever that means). It also seems like a political move and not one of personal choice.
..thats what McCain supporters will say...but hey they were never going to vote for him anyway...
Strange, I think it and I'm not a supporter of any of these shit candidates. And isn't this much more about who will get the votes between HRC and BHO? Seems to me it is. The latest pastor was blasting Clinton, not McCain.
so which 'shit' candidate do you support?
dont agree with your analysis re voters between HRC and BHO btw...
I don't support any at the moment. It' going to be a tough year for me. I ahve things I like about BHO and things I like about McCain. Don't like HRC what so ever.
As far as the Dems they have big problems still. After yesterdays DNC meeting the Clinton supporters were chanting something along the lines of "Vote for McCain". They are still pissed about FL and MI, even though their candidate voted not count the votes if they movd the primaries. Strange that.
The Democrats have completed fecked this up, it's amazing.
Hillary would have easily won in November but they allow this Obama thing to get so much out of hand that now there is almost no doubt they're stuck with him as their candidate.
Hillary & Bill will no doubt "back" him in public and do their absolute best to destroy his campaign so Hillary gets another go in 4 years time...
I did not mention anything about the race though that will play some part as well.you seem to be certain......interesting...
you are wrong of course....Americans are not bigots....though there are some minor elements that would not vote for a black man.
Obama's demographics are different from HRCs
Obama has solid black vote, the majority of young people votes and the educated white vote. Also he has very strong grassroots activists support....this is a Democratic year and McCain will struggle to get his base out...the Religious right is pissed with him...that is as certain a GOP block as the Black vote has been for the Dems...it will be even stronger this year....more than 9 to 1 voting for Obama...
also looking at the Electrol college...he needs two of PA,OH and FL...Florida will be a climb...but he will get the other two...OH's Strickland is a Democrat Governor.
Also Obama this year has a great chance of winning Virginia,Colorado and Iowa. Withe normal Blue States he will get the votes he needs.
it is a toss up atm...but Hillary will back him solid after the primaries end in a few weeks...she wants a future in the Democratic Party as does Cigar Bill...
just as a matter of interest the GOP has lost 3 solid seats in special elections so far...they are in very bad shape...
I did not mention anything about the race though that will play some part as well.
It is all about the numbers in the end. I stick with my prediction that a lot of people who right now are rooting for Obama would balk at voting for him in the end. With Hillary, that would not have happened. She brings the perception of being as experienced and heavy handed as Mccain. Also with Obama standing, there is no chance of hardcore right wings staying home or crossing over. They will do everything to keep Obama out. While with Hillary, they were actually talking about voting for her instead of Mccain.
I won't say I am completely certain but I would bet a good amount on a Mccain win over Obama.
AP: Clinton tells colleagues she is open to being Obama's vice president candidate.
The FL and MI issue were poorly handled...but a lot of that was also the fault of the state democratic parties....in the end if the states don't follow the rules...there will be chaos...
the reason HRC is not the nominee is because she ran the worst campaign ever...heck Penn did not even know that states awarded proportional representation....what an idiot....while Obama correctly stressed on caucus states as much as the big states....
...and you are totally wrong that only HRC can win in november...that is the rubbish Clinton mantra....either of them will win......
as to her strategy...she will do her best to help him win....if Bill and Hillary try to destroy Obama's chance she will never get to run in 2012....the party does not belong to the Clintons anymore...that has been clear for some time....if it had been the Clintons party she would have got all those California Supers when she won....that was the signal....
people are absolutely mad with the GOP...that is why Hillary is desperate to be the nominee....a Dem win is almost certain......
as to her supporters....and the party unifying....that will absolutely happen....before month end the two of them will be doing joint tours....
in the end most of her supporters will back Obama...can you imagine women backing a guy who wants to overturn Roe V Wade?
