Default McCain says "Vote for Hillary"

I think he can beat either of the Democrat candidates, but Hillary has so much baggage and is so divisive and easily angered, that she would be fairly easy to beat. With Obama you have to defeat a cult of personailty where his supporters are not supporting him because of anything he stands for, but rather have some irrational infatuation with him.

Moreover if Hitlary wins because of superdelegates then the minority population will be screaming that she stole the election and will sit on their hands in November. I'm not McCain fan, but from where I sit he's the lesser of 3 evils and capable of beating either one of them head to head.

Obama's campaign will eventually (if it hasn't already) run out of the popular support that it's getting from young voters. Hitlary, on the other hand, has the support of most mainstream Democrats who aren't black. She will probably have most of her supporters voting for her in November while Obama will have only the black voting bloc. In the end, I think McCain will come out on top, no matter who the challenger is.

If Hillary is the nominee, there is no way McCain will win....... they don't want another bush for 4 more years, believe that = the past eight years have been pathetic and miserable. McCain has more of a chance if Barack is nominee, the longer he campaigns the worse he looks, and the republicans will be all over him. Hillary's "baggage" as you call it is well known and has already been rummaged through extensively.

Democrats have a chance to take the White House only with Hillary. Maybe.

That assumes nobody cares anymore about her baggage. I don't think that's true. She has very high "unlikability" numbers.

I propose we declare a national "We hate Hilary" and encourage consumer spending to help our slowing (but not receding) economy. This would also serve the dual purpose of lowering Hilary's support by publicly proclaiming it but also by taking away one of the reasons working class people support her. Yeah!
WE HATE HILARY, 08'

Your entitled to your opinion about Hitlary v McCain, however what about the last eight years has been so miserable? To be quite honest I've had it pretty good for the last eight or more, and my quality of life has increased of said period of time. But dogging the Pres and blaming him for you own personal misfortune some how makes sense and it's cool to ride the bandwagons


I wonder how miserable and pathetic you've had it compared to other places around the world.......

I would also like to add that McCain is a very un-Bush republican and has criticized the current administration on many issues. The reason why people think that he is the same as Bush is because of his support of the surge, not other issues such as the environment.

Which also remind me of the reason I don't like McCain, well I guess there is this too.
