Marion, you can’t look at this strictly through CA influenced eyes. Throughout the entire country, Hillary has succeeded in painting Obama a bright shade of red in the eyes of many voting Democrats…….and many of those voters will not vote for Hillary either. That means that they will either stay home or hold their nose and vote for McCain. The latest polls that I have seen indicate that Obama has a much better chance against McCain than Hillary……….. but still would lose to him. Besides being an ex resident of north county coastal, San Diego, I’m also an ex-Republican (thanks to Bush and his antics) but I wouldn’t vote for Hillary if she was the last person on earth. Obama gives a good speech and says lot’s of things that make people feel good but he’s a heavy tax & spend Democrat. I just can’t see enough people voting for him (especially after Hillary has tarred and feathered him over and over again) to win the Presidency and the majority of the political pundits are saying the same thing.
I guess we’ll find out in November. 🙂
