Obviously, you don't get it, Taniel.<br/><br/>Why would white people be pissed off at people who hate them? Yep, that is an almost impossible question to answer... NOT!

So it is a wash - this long Democratic primary season is causing harm to the parties chances in November regardless of candidate.

They can't even hold it on light-red states.<br/><br/>As for the bellwether state of Missouri, the 14% deficit of obama is just ghastly so much for camp obama’s arguments that they put deep red states of Kansas, Wyoming, Louisiana and Mississippi in play.

It does depend on the events that come up in the next 8 months (further bad economic news, Iraq etc) but McCain was the best candidate the GOP could pick.<br/><br/>I agree with the comment above that McCain has weaknesses and it is 8 months to go. The Dems when they unite around a candidate in June (it will not be allowed to go on much past the last primary vote) will be able to go on the offensive against McCain and he will lose his free pass. In the meantime it is hard for the Dems - Obama has come down to earth and Clinton is flat lining from a bad February. As I have mentioned before I think McCain will be very hard to beat.

Seriously, McCain is old, has a faulty memory and anger management problems. It's eight months until the election, we should just chill a little and he'll give us plenty of poll altering gaffes. Of more interest is why did Jack Murtha jumped on Hillary's bandwagon yesterday, a day when it would have zero news value because of Obama's speach?
