Barack is the only way to stop a McCain presidency

Now that the Straight Talk Express has all but clinched the GOP ticket, we all need to come to our senses - don't put up Hillary against a moderate like McCain - its guaranteed Republican win.

Edwards people - its essentially on you guys to decide.

soldiers and all McCain can say is lets keep them there for 100-1000 years what ever it takes.

look at the voter turn out he generates.

Out of the RINOS, I prefer McCain.

Only because he can beat Hillary.

He won’t beat Obama though. No one can, as far as I can see.

That comment is right on.

Whoever thinks Barack Hussein Obama wont get decimated in a general election is really naive. The repigs are salivating for a chance to run against them.

I give the democrats credit for finding a way to lose when they were handed the 08 presidential election. John Edwards was our only chance to win for sure.

"We have TRUTH on our side!":rofl:

:hi:

All of us mortals have struggled with it since the beginning of time.

The media would turn on Obama in a split second and he would not be able to defend against the attacks.

All those Republicans who've been voting for McCain in the Democratic primaries will go home to the Republican party.

If Hillary is the nom, might as well just accept four years of McCain.

They are the group that sways elections in this country.

They like "straight shooter" McCain.

They despise Hillary.

End of story.


ETA: I'm not calling you stupid, you recognize this phrase, right?

On the Democratic side, Edwards performs best against each of the leading Republicans. In addition to beating Huckabee by 25 percent and McCain by 8 percent, the North Carolina Democrat beats Romney by 22 percentage points (59 percent to 37 percent) and Giuliani by 9 percentage points (53 percent to 44 percent).

While the survey shows McCain and Edwards performing best in their respective fields, both candidates continue to significantly trail their parties' front-runners significantly. In the national horse race numbers released Monday, McCain trails Giuliani by 11 percentage points, and Edwards is behind Clinton by 26 percentage points.

"Edwards is the only Democrat who beats all four Republicans, and McCain is the only Republican who beats any of the three Democrats," Holland said. "Some might argue this shows that they are the most electable candidates in their respective parties.

Seriously, though, didn't Bill Clinton lose the first few primaries? Edwards is not out.

I am really concerned.

Hillary is the only candidate in either field left that can fire up the GOP base. Suicide.

Barack will attract the independents over McCain. Barack will trump McCain over the economy. The republican base hates McCain and will largely stay home...unless he's running against Hillary, that is?

Could you provide some rationale for your thoughts?

so tell me, where does the Evangelical vote go if it's Obama-McCain? How about if it's Clinton-McCain? The answer is politics 101 obvious.

obsecene picture..looks like they are doing the humpty hump

Get real! Hillary is the only one that can defeat them. She has proven it time and time again!

He'll break.

*woosh!*

he did. We need Obama who is ALSO seen as honest, with better judgement than McCain, who is the CHANGE candidate. Hillary will lose to McCain.

and he may pick LIEberman to be his running mate.

Good job Dems once again nominating a freaking candidate THAT CAN NOT WIN...

I swear to God this party has a death wish....

in this country, want us OUT of Iraq. McCain's warmongering bullshit isn't going to play well in the GE...where SANE people vote.

a national election, you really need to find a new drug dealer.

and then Clinton could probably win.

McCain may be old or whatever, but he ain't naive and he ain't stupid.

Sigh.

Edwards is winning more Republican votes than Obama (31% v 27%)
Hillary is winning more Indie votes than Obama (40% v 30%)
Obama not winning either Republicans or Indies. So how do you expect him to beat McCain?

CNN exit polls

Clinton. (except on Progressive blogs). At my coffee stop today the local blue collars were all talking about McCain. These guys are union and some even sport Edwards bumper stickers.

gets done with him.....count on it

he is too moderate for them. So it would be a big plus in terms of turnout for Congressional seats, and Obama will motivate a lot of people who would otherwise not vote, to come out for him. We saw this in Iowa and South Carolina in a major way.

I wouldn't be surprised if Obama wins by a large margin in the GE because many of the polls are not counting on the big turnout from people who otherwise don't vote.

so unless you have something to back your claim up...

strong showing in Florida, because I can'help but to think that when a candidate who didn't campaign in the state at all comes in first ahead of all the Republicans, who have been campaigning hard there, that is to significant to ignore. And it'an even bigger victory because the Democrats who voted for Hillary knew their vote didn'even count, I think this is an indication that Hillary would win by a landslide in the general election.

It'll just be a bit closer if its Obama.
