it almost sounds like a joke...A black guy, a white woman and a white male were running for election of President of the United States.........

McCain has already won, the rest are just wasting time and peoples money. I am not for McCain but nevertheless its his.

Thank you conservative Bush/McCain Republicans for global warming, the use of food (corn ethanol) in the gas tanks of SUV's causing famine all over the world. resulting in slow death for all life on earth. Thank you for urban sprawl, the non-stop building of new homes that no one wants, and the destruction of all farmland to build the new homes with illegal labor from south of the border that you won't protect. Thank you for trying to destroy Social Security and medical care for all Americans, great bunch of guys, oh did I mention the non stop wars to support conservative republican arms and ammunition manufactures?

Hillary will ultimately win the Democrat nomination and face McCain in the general election.
It is going to be one of the ugliest, nastiest Presidential campaigns in American history but, unfortunately, it is likely that McCain will win.

Barack will win.
If Hillary would win against Barack, McCain would make it. I do believe though, Barrack will make it against Hillary and then he should not have so much of a problem against Mc Cain.
Have some faith in the American population. Barack has a good head on his shoulders and I am sure even the republicans would have voted Colin Powell for president, would he have ran for the job.

I go for Hillary

Keep busy at something. A busy person never has time to be unhappy.

I the Democratic convention will go for Hilary, who will lose to McCain.

I RISKS ON OBAMA BUT NOT SLENDERer clinton's --which nakely seen of RACE?GENDER?RELIGION? contitution descriminations.

"LIFE IS SHORT - TRY TO MAKE USE OF ITS FULLY"

I'd kinda like to know who's most likely to win right now, statistically that is... is that possible to predict? I never get online to read what's up, and I have no cable or satellite tv, so I just rent movies, and never read the paper.. i'm soooo out of the loop on this topic.. but I heard that (from just one person mind you, and it was a few weeks ago), that Hillary is more in the lead over Obama ( I know nothing about this guy, except that he's black, and has a effed up name, Ironically sounding like Osama, which weirds me out), and I think he's the one trying to play up like he's some big war hero just because he was a Pow. And then there's Mcaine, Republican, that is behind Hillary. So basically I HEARD that Hillary, as of right now, is in the lead for the Presidency. Does that sound right to anyone else??

John Huckabee..

I was sitting at a bank waiting to get served and Huckabee was on tv, This lady gets up and says Glory Be.. I had a vision last night and God spoke to me and said " John Huckabee will be the next president of the UNITED STATES.

who am i to argue with someone who hears god speak?

or maybe he meant to say Obama and got his signals mixed up.

I'm would be interested in the reasons why you conclude that McCain will win over Clinton. Do you think he could win over Obama as well? Do you think McCain can distance himself from the Bush administration and the war sufficiently to win the votes? Thanks for your thoughts.

You can kill the revolutionary but you can not kill the revolution

Simply more people hate Clinton than dislike McCain. Obama's "I can do it better...let's change" platform, completely devoid of any actual ideas won't win enough.

Bluma, for just one day forget everything,and think HAMENTASHEN

I think even the professional odds makers are having trouble predicting this one. Americans tend to go for a change in the other direction every several years which normally would put he the bias in favor of the Democrats but everyone is confused about his because the Democratic candidate will either be a woman or a black man, neither of which has historically been taken that seriously as winners. Another confusion, is that sitting senators normally do not fare that well in modern history as Presidential winners but McCain, Clinton, and Obama are all sitting senators. I rally have no idea or even a reasonable hunch about how this will stack up. I take some comfort in thinking that all three would strive for better health insurance and such.

as the intellect of lot of american continually fell down I used to said : republican anothher once but the financiary situation of united state is so desastrous in the end of Bush mandate ( some economics analyst thinks very close from 1929 !) that perhaps democrate could be have a chance ! i would like obama but I think perhaps Clinton with republican report of theirs vote on his candidacy !

I just read where a WV newspaper surveyed its readers about who will be the next President. It comes out McCain 50%; Clinton 31%; and Obama 19%.

This of course is not a scientific poll and only includes readers of that particular newspaper. It surprises me that in in tradional democratic state the margin of opinion is so heavily pointing to McCain.

My chiropractor, a diehard democrat, swears the democratic convention will bring in a ringer and settle on some one like Al Gore.

Bush has 10 more months of damage to do to the economy, environment, destruction of farmland, wrecking the health care system, educational system, ethanol projects, foreign relations, giving welfare to wealth homebuilders and aid to banks and wall street. THEN will will see how many vote for McCain. Bush will drag down McCain as much as he can.

I hope it will be obama. what I heard and read is that he has some good ideas

If the primates that we came from had known that someday politicians would come out of the gene pool, they'd stayed up in the trees and written evolution off as a bad idea.

From his recent outburst I think Obama has lost voters. Its the age old argument of "I can't be racist I had two black men over for dinner last night". He hasn't denounced the pastor for what he has said because his white grandmother has made racist statements in the past. Talk about tarring with the same brush.

I have to agree with Ed. the Obama supporters made a serious mistake when they started implying that only racism would stop Obama from being President. The fact that he is the least experinced of the contenders and that a lot of Americans support conservative ideas is not being considered by his supporters. He seems to have lost a lost of support recently.

Total BS

more BS - Bush is supporting Hydrogen, remember?

HAHAHHAHHAHAHHA....urban sprawl has been around for decades....more BS.

SS is a joke. It is a drain on the economy. And it has been in trouble since the 70's...I believe we've had some Democratic Administrations who did exactly nothing then, too.....brother....

"Faith is Action, Based upon Belief, Sustained by Confidence in God's Word and His promise to perform it" ---Dr. Gene Scott

If I were an American I'd be concerned about McCain. Not so much his political views but the fact he has been round the block. Infact it wouldn't only take an anniversairy with his wife to finish him off.

Ewww gross

Not too far gone from what I said in another thread. I wonder if imaginery bugs keep biting him as well.

From the sublime to the ridiculous is but one step--Napolean Bonaparte

USa has had a number of fairly elderly presidents, most of whom made it through their terms ok. I think it would take more than you think to finish off McCain.

considering Kennedy was the youngest and he didn't make it 4 years...what's the difference in age...you can die at any time.

"Do or do not - there is no try!" - Yoda

Good point, I calculate that only one president considered elderly, W.H. Harrison, did not finish his term. The others who might be viewed as elderly, GW, John Adams, Andrew Jackson, Buchannon, Truman, Eisenhower, and Reagan did ok though Eisenhower, near the end of his second term was briefly out of action due to a heart attack. Harrsison died in office in 1841 before modern medicine of pneumonia, which likely would not have killed him in the modern world.

I hope obama will win. to hillary i say: be smart, don't start

Eat me !

I hope obama will win. to hillary i say: be smart, don't start

Eat me !

I think some one needs to remind Obama..its not a sprint, its a marathon..the phrase "ran out of steam" comes to mind..

I recently had a death in the family...so for several weeks I neither paid a bit of attention to the news or listened to the radio..But now that I'm back...
here I am wondering what's different..
It seems every things still stuck right where it was.
The thing about McCain and age...well...I tend to agree with Dave there..one can die at any age..
But then again...for McCain it's not the totality of the years...but just how brutal some of them must have been..
Obama...I still do find him likable...but I remain just as mistrusting.
I just hope his followers don't start shaving their heads and handing out leaflets at the airport.
