McCain will not win the election in November, but he may not lose it either. There is a strong possibility that Obama will beat himself. He postured himself as a uniter and a messiah. Once people discover he is neither the fall from grace will be massive. I think we have seen only the tip of the iceberg with Obama, and look forward to future revelations.
A likely scenario is a McCain win, with huge losses in the Senate and House.
If McCain pulls off a small miracle and wins, how much can he accomplish with a congress that is 60-40 Democrat? He will have to ‘accommodate’ them even more than he does now. A lot of people say the federal judge issue is one reason to vote for McCain and I tend to agree. But how is he going to get any nominee through? We’ll see just how much good will he still has with Kennedy, Feingold, etc when they try to shoot down his judicial nominees.
As far as the MS race goes, what else were Republicans supposed to do? They tried linking the Dem to Obama, Pelosi, and even Mr Wright and they still failed. It is omens like this that make me think Obama will win, and that the American people are stupid enough to give the socialists a big enough majority that it will last for years.
