It will be interesting to see how hard McCain goes after Obama using the socialist/hardcore liberal label. The media will bend over backwards to portray Obama as a moderate. McCain will have to some how take the independents from Obama and shift Obama farther left while simultaneous straddling the middle/right dynamic in the Republican party.

Obama is helped greatly by having a far thinner record than McCain or even Hillary.

I am still shocked that the Clinton machine hasn’t found something really juicy to throw out there against Obama. But of course, it doesn’t help much to label Obama too socialist inside the Democratic nomination process.

I wonder how long it will take the media to proclaim McCain a racist for pointing out Obama’s flaws? This is going to be a strange election of Obama actually beats HRC.

‘...I am still shocked that the Clinton machine hasn’t found something really juicy to throw out there against Obama. I wonder how long it will take the media to proclaim McCain a racist for pointing out Obama’s flaws?..’

That’s exactly the point....Clinton and media outlets are afraid they will be called racists if they begin to question Obama’s past comments/behavior/affliations.
And, imho, seems the Clintons found someone who is more SLICK than they are.
Interesting though, many ‘white’ people are supporting Obama but many ‘black’ people who are supporting Obama seem to be doing so because he has identified himself as ‘black’.....very few ‘black’ people seem willing to support the ‘white’ Dem even though many of her views are similar to those of Obama. Hmmm, but they are not called racist....how about just supporting the PERSON who will best protect America?? (of course, that would be neither Dem...lol).

I genuinely wish we could all simply be AMERICANS...not white,black, Asian-American, African-American, Irish-American, Hispanic-American......maybe then we ALL would begn to care more about our great country than our personal agendas.
We’re in a sad state....God help us.
