With two of the worst nominees ever now vying for the presidency, anything can happen. As more people begin to realize what a lightweight Obama is, his support could drop off to nothing but those who’d never vote for anyone but a Democrat, and there could be a McCain landside.
Then again, if McCain comes off as too old and too tired, and if he continues to offend conservative Republicans, Obama could win by a comfortable margin.
Either man is capable of major screw-ups, during the campaign or in the Oval Office.
I am hopeful that when McCain designates his younger and (maybe) more conservative running mate, the age issue will fade.
