Here’s what I think of the election thus far:Obama has the absolute support of the far-left. Also, most of the media is totally in the tank for him. Their support of Obama borders on the
. McCain has he support of the moderates, but the conservative base of his party flat-out dosen’t like him. It would be wise of him to select a solid conservative as VP. Maybe if he puts Romney on his ticket, the Republicans will forget about the immigration crap he pulled last summer. Similarly, Clinton supporters feel pretty left out. There is no telling if they will support Obama or not. Putting Clinton in Obama’s VP slot would win him some voters, but the hassles that come with it might not be worth it.
This year favors the Democrats, but most polls put McCain and Obama neck and neck. McCain’s best advantage is his expierience in that he can simply say, “The world is getting really dangerous. I’m the old war horse. My oponent is a one-term pup.” Also, Obama made nice with a lot of crazies back in Chicago. If another one or two or fifty pop up, McCain would be crazy not to exploit it. Oh, and warming up to the right would help.
Obama has serious advantages: he is a much better public speaker than McCain, the media will give him the most favorable coverage imaginable, and a lot of people are angry with the Republicans. Personally, I don’t trust the leadership of either party, but the Democrats suck signifigantly more.

I agree. I don’t know who to vote for. I am ashamed to admit this but I would have voted for Hillary if she had gotten the ticket (runs and hides).
