At least he didn't lose his seat in congress.

But Honestly, if Obama won, would the republicans not voting for McCain really vote for him>? I think they'd be more likely to vote for Hilary.

Many of the same Republican/conservative leaders who don't particularly like McCain that much HAAAATE Clinton. I am thinking mostly the same people, like Rush Limbaugh, that were encouraging conservatives in Texas to go out and vote for Hillary yesterday! They know that conservatives will come out in droves to vote against her in November if she gets the nomination. I've seen nothing like this kind of almost literal hatred toward Obama. So no, conervatives might not vote for Obama, but I do hope that Obama will get the nomination and that as a result, they will stay home instead of voting for McCain.

I fucking hate politics. They're still dirty in the end, people don't pay enough attention to things they claim to care about

What I take from what you say is that you don't actually hate politics itself... you hate politicians as they have to function in certain political institutions. I hate this election shit too, but real politics, to me at least, is in the streets.
