Obama will be lucky to get 45% of the vote. All republicans will vote against him, not for McCain, but against obama. McCain does well with independents to begin with, so I think against a terrorist that's also a racist, he'll carry 2/3 of the independent vote. McCain will get a huge chunk of democrat votes. And many hillary supporters will not show up to vote anyway. Novak is so wrong in his analysis. It will not be a democrat landslide. It will most likely will be Nixon versus McGovern. Our liberal thrashes their socialist.

I do think the Democrats will come together more than they appear to now but there’s no way they’ll repair all the damage that Obama and Clinton have done. However, that being said, the media is going to have a hard time spinning McCain as the latest monster from the right. They just spent the last 8 years telling everyone how wonderful the Maverick is for opposing conservative republicans. Americans have short attention spans but I think they’ll remember McCain’s good press. Thankfully we still have a secret ballot. I’m convinced that many, many Democrats will vote McCain.
