Despite my view in the previous post, I do think that Obama will win the election. Not based on his popularity or anything of that nature, but by of the actions of Republicans. The people of the United States are getting tired of terms like "terrorist" "9/11" and "national security" These buzz words to instill insecurity and fear are waning. Because the republicans are now harping on these words so close to the election, it will be a buzz kill for many people who were going to vote for McCain.
It is interesting though, as in one presidential term, we can cover all bases - first black president and first woman president. If there's any weight in redneck america, Obama might get whacked, Biden will step up, and due to age possibly die off, putting Pelosi in the white house.
Funny how the presidential term ends in 2012, when the ancient Mayans say the world will end.
