Default I bet obama will be the president

I'm not taking sides. I really don't care about who becomes president, but I bet it will be obama. if I lose, I will say right here that I'm an idiot, but if obama gets elected and I win, anyone joined here saying otherwise should do so. care to join?

current members of the bet:

obama:
Perham

mccain:
ABoyNamedSue
BillyBob

I disagree.

The socialistic left of this country dominates the media right now. They do not represent "Joe Average" (and before you whine, the "religious right" is just as bad...they just don't get the pub).

There's gonna be a lot of big talk, and subjective polls. Lots of posturing, and speculation. However, when each individual voter is left alone with that voting machine, THAT'S when you're gonna see the REAL voter.

Not EVERYONE wants a neo-socialist in the White House. You're gonna find that this election is going to be a lot closer than you think.

Hillary stood a better shot at winning the White House.

McCain will be our next President....unless he dies first.

With the advances in modern medicine we can keep John McCain alive years longer than he should naturally be living.

Casting a vote for McCain is also voting for whoever will take over after his half-term presidency.

I just got the feeling from what's happening right now. who thought that obama could beat clinton this soon? it seems that he's been chosen before. and never ever underestimate the power of mass media. they can change everything. also another possibility is mccain's death as billy said!

Soon? It came down to the final primary!

The media elected Obama, not the citizens. Hillary won the popular vote.
