This pair would win . . .

I don't think it's even close. McCain has a handle on this for now, unless we figure out a way to get the two together or risk losing a large portion of Demo's. The people that will vote for BHO will vote Demo anyway, it appears, but the crossovers, i believe are Hilliary's. That appears to be the only reason she is still in the race, with little to no chance. She has the right votes to win. He has your everyday Demos.

This is a good article I got off of a link here and it explains a heck of a lot.
In Terms of Geography, Obama Appeals to Academics and Clinton Appeals to Jacksonians
 
Too early to tell, not much to choose from.

Either douchebag could win, it will just be the less douche of either party we have to choose from.
 
I agree. I think Webb is the VP candidate and they have the leg up at this moment. Of course there is lot's of time until the election.
 
Nothing personal against McCain, but unless Hillary is his opponent, he has no chance.

Great American hero but... too old, too moderate for conservatives, too non-religious for evengelicals.

So...

in a McCain Clinton race, McCain eeks out a win.
In a McCain Obama race, Obama wins handily.
 
God Bluegrass,

Where do you get these figures? Man, just because BHO gets the local votes ina rural area, understand that he doesn't even beat Hilliary in the important states. Tell me again how many delegates Idaho is gonna bring him?


C'mon, give me a candidate that can win the GE. BHO will not, and can't.
 
Most of this crap is PURE speculation on each side on WM here. I want to see someone actually go through and show how either the Dem candidate (presumably BHO) or McCain wins the necessar electoral votes, then I'm not going to think anything other than this is going to be a close election in the fall.
We have had YEARS of close presidential elections. The only one I can think of since Reagan that wasn't very close was when Perot ran in '92. (Clinton wasn't that close in 96, but he carried several southern states. I don't see how BHO is going to win any states in the south.)
 
Blue and Sii,

Go ahead and ask the IQ question. I can promise you it will surprise you. It was good enough to get through UT Twice, I can telll you that.

What I'm gettin' at, and I do it often with 2 kids pulling at my coattails, is that BHO will win the normail Dem voters, while Hill will get the swing votes, at least according to the votes as of yet. There was a great article that should be read that I posted recently. It doesnt' say that BHO should step aside, nor hillieary, it just says what the voting, per state look like.

Why you would even go for IQ, I don't know. I must be doing wayyyy to much while posting as well. Unless the Obamaniacs are just way too sensitive.
 
You may be right but I don't think they will vote based on the life issue with everything else going on. There is a segment of society that will vote based on the life issue.

The conventional wisdom right now says that the Dems don't have to worry
about their half turning out but the Reps do. I think that is wrong and an under the radar asset for McCain. Pro-lifers are closer to a court that could overturn Roe v. Wade than they have ever been.
 
I'm saying that I think the life issue, more specifically Supreme Court nominees, is going to ultimately drive out social conservatives. They are the closest to a court that will overturn Roe v Wade than they have ever been and they are at the same time close to being 20 years away from even having a chance at a court that overturn Roe v Wade.

Sorry, posting from a iPhone is a little weird.
