MY BIGGEST FEAR: Obama Can't Win

270 ELECTORAL VOTES

That is what it takes to win the fall. I agree with Barack Obama and this contest should not be about him or Hillary Clinton. There is little policy difference between them and either candidate is a vast improvement from W. It's about putting a Democrat back in the White House.

If true - we should have an honest conversation about choosing the strongest candidate to represent us.

Based on 270 electoral votes Hillary Clinton is the stronger choice. Not only, will she carry traditional battle ground states like West Virginia, Ohio and Pennsylvania - she wins in Florida, New Hampshire and Arkansas.

She wins "Reagan Democrats".

I know Obama supporters will imply that race was a determining factor in looking at these key swing states.

I will respond by saying... His race did not make him succeed at Harvard or in the United States Senate. His blackness did not make him choose Rev. Wright, not wear a flag pin or refer to the working class as bitter. His race had nothing to do with him losing the economic argument to Hillary Clinton.

Bottom line - Obama is boxed in like every other failed Democratic nominee of my lifetime. The numbers are what they are.

In choosing Obama my kids will have 20 years of the term "McCain Democrats" to enjoy.

Obama 365, McCain 173

Yeah Obama can't win. Good prediction there, Nostradumass.

[wolfdude]

hahahah he won!!!!! Obama won!!!!

[preving]

@CarlChub Course you understand that if Obama loses then the GOP's have to reverse what Obama has done to make it go the GOP way which will cause ALOT of problems. Take for example, Obama inheriting George Bush's mess. Things got alot worse...

@neonineten : That is so wrong, neo lol

[CheezInspector]

For some reason two obvious signs that Obama was headed for a landslide got continuously overlooked: first, Obama was running an epic, aggressive ground campaign that focused on just about ALL the states in our Union. Secondly, he had generated a level of enthusiasm for him and his campaign that we haven't seen since John F. Kennedy. ... How that WOULDN'T translate into so many votes is beyond me.

LOL!!! So wrong

Thank you neoniteten, and btw 1916WestVirginia, what's wrong with Obama not wanting to wear a flag pin? McCain didn't wear flag pins as a candidate either.

Open mouth, insert foot. Idiot. He won by a freakin' landslide, and we all knew it was going to happen. Why should Hillary have won the vote? She's a criminal.
