I wonder who his running mate will be certainly has to go with a white male as his VP if he wants to win the election, that may sound a bit racist but it is true.
white VP? this whole election process has turned that theory on its head...

IF Obama is the Dems candidate, I think it will be Richardson as VP...and not for the obvious Latino vote but for that experience factor in which Obama is weak....

as for the Gen Election...look at the Democrat and Republican votes ...almost 2 to 1 advantage...and McCain is hardly the darling of the Religious right...

this year it is rightly or wrongly about enthusian and anger....there is a knee jerk reaction against what Bush has and still is doing....

it will be Democrat President...probably...I better say that.....
but as I have said before McCain is a decent enough guy..so no complains if he does win it either...
