Looks like you can't count McCain out of the running. I identify a lot with many of his positions on various things, however, I simply am not 100% in favor of him.
Tim, my other writer, is a McCain guy. He makes very valid points on why he supports him, but there's just not that "click" that I felt with previous candidates.
But while we can debate the outcome of the Republican race, it was the Democratic side that has everyone's panties in a bunch.
And it appears that Hillary just might come back to win this one too. Right now, Hillary has a 3 percent lead over Obama. Certainly nothing to write home about, but if Hillary can't make it work by a wide margin like Obama did in Iowa, she still may have major campaign problems in the coming months.
People from both sides of the political aisle really detest her. Whether it's her blatant dishonesty, her patronizing tone, such as her "southern drawl" during a campaign stop, or her ruthlessness, there's something about Hillary that just rubs people the wrong way.
If Obama was smart, he'd play up the "Change" platform that he's been so successful on so far. He'd show Hillary's weaknesses to the world, and bring up a lot of her secretiveness traits that she shares with President Bush. If he manages to show that she's just a Democratic George W. Bush, he'll sink her campaign quicker then a boat made of Swiss cheese.
But that's just what I'd do if I was Obama's political advisor.
