I hope you are right, but both of you are nuts.

There is a less than 10% chance that McCain will be the next President. There are too many factors against the “Republican” Candidate.

1. Iraq — We all know the situation is getting better, but the average voter does not.
2. Economy — We all know the situation isn’t as bad as the Media make it out to be and we know why the down-turn occurred, the average voter does not.
3. Gas Prices — We all know who is really to blame, the average voter does not.
4. He’s the “Republican”, read Bush guy, the average American is not a fan of Bush (unfairly, yes).

I just don’t see the cause of optimism, despite, the demographic advantage McCain should have amongst middle-class and blue collar voters, I just don’t see many of those voters crossing the aisle. I just don’t see it happen.

President Obama would be an unmitigated disaster (Jimmy Carter by a factor of 10), but I think its what we are going to get.

I disagree.

The current electoral map has them just about tied, but McCain will pretty much keep all of the Bush electoral votes, and he might pick up Michigan, if his VP is Romney, and there is actually something really really negative in Obama’s radical associations and in his inexperience and in his really odd gaffes.

This is going to be a McLiberal McLandslide victory. 30% of the Hillary voters swear they will never vote for Barack Fitzgerald Obama. The 60% of soccer moms and nascar dads in the mushy middle may be too busy to pay attention to politics daily, but they usually do get it right.

No way will they ever vote for an America hating Marxist.
