43. The white vote doesn't MATTER at this point
because this is not the general. Just because some white democrats will vote for Clinton over Obama does not mean they'll vote for McCain in the general. They will support whoever the nominee is in order to avoid a continuation of the Republican legacy. No matter what the spin may be from the pundits or Hillary supporters, Obama will not lose the general. Why do you think the Republicans are pushing so hard for Hillary to take the primary?

I hear a lot of strange things on this forum, but let's look it it all rationally. 80% of America thinks the Republicans have taken us down the wrong path. Do you seriously think they're going to give the keys to a Republican -- or to someone who has endorsed the Bush foreign policy? Do you think they're going to turn over the economy to a guy who claims to know nothing about economics?

People need to step back for a moment and take a deep breath. When you look at the WHOLE picture, objectively, it's fairly obvious that, barring a major disaster, Obama is our next President.
