Some of you please CALM DOWN
Some of you would think McCain has a good chance. Let's look at the FACTS. He has no where near the money Obama has and is having fundrasing problems. He has TONS of really bad sound bites floating out there. When the campaign gets rolling don't you think Obama and the Democratic Party will use those bites in ad after ad? He's really old. Remember Reagan and Alzheimer's...You will. When you put all that together and I am sure more, why worry?

1. Agreed. Everyone needs to calm down - Obama is going to destroy McCain.
Unpopular war, terrible economy, McCain's age is a big issue with people out there (I know this from personal conversations with family members and friends, a lot of them Republicans or independents), Obama's huge fundraising edge, McCain's ties to Bush, etc.

2. The problem is the media
They will tell glowing tales of St. McCain as the straight talking maverick and ignore all his flip-flops, pandering and conflicts of interest while they show clips of Rev. Wright on a loop and question why Obama doesn't were a flag pin.

3. You're right.
The DNC spot is a good example -- and that's just the beginning.

He's just a warm body. The Republicans don't stand a chance in November. It's so bad, the best they could do was nominate an old man with a bad temper, no charisma and ties to the man who almost destroyed our country. All the Dems have to do is stand in front of the cameras and ask the question Ronald Reagan asked; "Are you better off now than you were eight years ago"?
