Chief Kahuna is right. John McCain will be our next president. By Jonathan Chait, in The New Republic, January 21, 200 "Electability": Hillary Clinton is a highly unpopular figure. In the last Gallup survey, 50% of respondents have a favorable view of her, and 46% negative. Sometimes her averages goes higher, but sometimes it veers into negative territory. Obama has very high ratings. In the most recent poll, 59% view him favorably, 32% negatively. The difference between plus 4 and plus 27 is enormous--a Detroit Lions v. New England Patriots-size gap. On top of that, independents who vote in the primaries and caucuses have shown a very strong preference for Obama over Clinton. That is the closest available approximation of a swing voter. (Some Clinton supporters have pointed to her strength among lower-income Democrats in the primary, but a low-income Democratic primary voter is not the same thing as a working class swing voter.) In 2000, Clinton ran five points behind Al Gore in the state of New York, and it's not like Gore was the most popular politician who ever lived. That's who she is--a figure who is disliked by pretty much everybody who isn't a sure-fire Democrat, and even some people who are. You can imagine Obama running a horrible general election campaign and becoming less popular. No doubt his favorable ratings would drop a bit in the face of Republican attacks, as would hers. But for him to become as unpopular as Clinton already is--without months of nation-side attack ads--is a worst-case scenario. --------------------------------------------- Link to complete article: THE NEW REPUBLIC | Blogs |

What Hillary supporter on these boards has not said he'd support Obama if he gets the nomination; as opposed to visa versa? I think recent history has proven there is a lower standard as to what's okay to attack Clinton with than to attack Obama with. His supporters don't have a problem taking her words out of context or distorting their meaning, but they get all bent out of shape when his words are misrepresented. Personally, I get out of shape when anyone's words are misrepresented.

I think Romney blew a great opportunity.
McCain voted against Bush's tax cuts the first time because their were no spending cuts going with them. Why was he not asked why he voted to keep the tax cuts when there were still no spending cuts to go with them?

I walked along the avenue. I never thought I'd meet a girl like you; Meet a girl like you. With auburn hair and tawny eyes; The kind of eyes that hypnotize me through; Hypnotize me through. And I ran, I ran so far away. I just ran, I ran all night and day. I couldn't get away. A cloud appears above your head; A beam of light comes shining down on you, Shining down on you. The cloud is moving nearer still. Aurora borealis comes in view; Aurora comes in view. And I ran, I ran so far away. I just ran, I ran all night and day. I couldn't get away. Reached out a hand to touch your face; You're slowly disappearing from my view; Disappearing from my view. Reached out a hand to try again; I'm floating in a beam of light with you; A beam of light with you. And I ran, I ran so far away. I just ran, I ran all night and day. I couldn't get away. That lead singer was butt ugly! Last edited by MarkMiller; 01-31-2008 at 04:31 AM. |
