| 6. I so agree--and the gnashing of teeth and wringing of hands over "Obama will lose the GE" |
|
is nothing but wishful thinking on the part of Clinton "supporters" who are deeply disappointed that their candidate McSame will not be running against Hillary -- who, though I dislike her intensely, I suppose would also beat him, but not as decisively as Obama will. With her, far too many repukes would crawl on hands and knees over broken glass and razor wire for the chance to vote AGAINST her. Obama does not inspire this level of animosity and motivation to vote against.

I agree. The only reason it isn't going to be much bigger is the corporate media will prop up McCain |
