start looking older and more out of it than he does right now, I think he could hammer Obama big time on national security. I wouldn't believe a word of it, but there's a lot of people that might. Also, I don't have a dog in this hunt anymore. I have financially supported Hillary when she truly became the underdog and Obama started blowing away money making records. I also understand all or most of the negative feelings people have about her. Even though I might feel differently, I will gladly vote Obama. I think Obama has risen too quickly and, who knows what John McCain and Karl Rove's machine have up their sleeve when they are just zeroing in on Obama.
Now, I think Obama appears to have that, dare I say it again, major momentum going in his direction and if that fever can keep up once he gets the nomination, I would think he could easily beat McCain. To be honest, I keep having this feeling that McCain and his people will do a very good job at making Obama look weak. I hope not. I don't think he's weak. Just very untested. This will be a bit different than having thousands of people boosting you up as high as the heavens every where you go. McCain was the one candidate I didn't want us to have as an opponent. I personally think he is too old, even though his mother is still alive and very alert! But McCain went to hell and back in Nam and I'm sad to say that it probably took it's toll in longevity for McCain. Maybe not. Also, McCain appears to only talk about radical Islamist. I haven't watched any Republican debates so I don't know for sure.
My prediction is if Hillary somehow pulls this out, she would give McCain a real good fight because she can stop that national security argument, which is all he seems to have, right in it's tracks. But, Hillary has baggage..lots of negatives. I get that.
If Obama wins the nomination and goes head to head with McCain as long as he can keep the conversation OFF of national security, I think he could win easily. Obama appears to learn very quickly.
Obviously, it's all way more complicated than that.
Wow..it really is all very confusing. Very exciting!
