“McCain will win in a landslide because America will not elect a Marxist and a Racist even if he is Black.

If the election were held today, Obama would lose.
But the election will not be held today. In five (5) months, this country will be firmly on the path to Depression. Oil will, conservatively, be $170/barrel and $6/gallon, and the financial markets will be on the verge of collapse from the derivatives unwinding that is accelerating as we speak.
Under those circumstances, it is hard to imagine that Obama CAN”T win.
That said, he is an empty suit, and Clinton is another empty sit, as is McCain, and the net effect for everyone on this board will be the same: we will all suffer tremendously. It is an economic inevitability, and Obama cannot prevent this.
As I see it, Obama’s biggest problem now will be millions of angry Americans who will wake up to the fact, sometime in mid-2009, that he can’t possibly or humanly deliver the “change” he falsely promised to so many, and that he is merely a new puppet properly-positioned by the global elite to “control” American masses with uplifting speeches and soothing words to avert a civil uprising as their standard of living plummets and crime abounds.
I will be curious to see how Americans react to the betrayal. I think it is inevitable that Obama will be a one-term president. He didn’t create the problem, but he has unfortunately promised that he can “fix” it. His successor may have a chance at success, but also very slim. We have a long way to go down this rabbit hole.
