Super saturday 7.6.2008 went into history as a day of America and a
day of black America.
Barack Obama went as history becoming first highest ranking black
candidate in US history of politics.
His candidacy was however more on popularity in party than in votes.
Hillary Clinton won Obama in so called "super ten" 7-3 and lose all
states 22-28.
In politics votes don't  necessarily count.
In spite of Hillarys win Obama was kept as better candidate by John
Kerry,Kennedy and many influential democrats. Their votes were
decisieve.
Five months is ahead to november when   200 million americans say
their word in the battle.
McCain possibilites were valued better to Obama than Hillary.
Black america (10% population) will turn great to Baracks pocket, that
is sure.
What is Johns tactics. He cann't trust to black.
Scandal that became three months ago puts John difficult situation. It
is however more probable that Obama will not play that card now. That
was Hillary's big card, and fit for him but to Barck it is not sure to
work.
 Military and foreign political expertise is McCains card, he is as
old as Reagan in his presidency.
In jewhis vote MacCain and Obama are in their openings campaigning
neck and neck.
Will MacCain nominate his nearest rival Huccabee as vice president or
Obama Hillary wait and see.
Exciteing moment seeing whose nerve will last to precidency.

IMO, if Clinton had won the primary, Obama supporters
for the most part would have had no problem supporting
Clinton against McCain.  But a significant number of
Clinton supporters will hang in and write her name on the
ballot, giving McCain a deciding edge.  Obama doesn't
have a chance in hell of beating McCain, whereas Clinton
would have given McCain a good fight, and perhaps would
have beaten him to become the next president.

Looks like the reps win again.  Hands down.

happy days and...
  starry starry nights!

Painius  Nicely put.  Obama could win in November,but never sleep in the
White House.     Hillary did have the best chance,and might take the
vice president post(I dought it)   Being a senator of NY has its power.
Still she also knows that Obama could be shot.  She also knows she can
be shot    At this spacetime both the CIA and the FBI are not up and
up.(very corrupt)     Bert

Obama would never pick Hillary to be a VP because she brings the
problems of her husband with her.
She may give some lip service to Obama being elected, but it won't be
much.
Remember, she can always run again in 4-8 years.

That said; Obama has obviously impressed a lot of powerful people
enough
to make it as far as he has.
His election campaign was unrivaled as far as coordination, volunteers
and
small donations.

McCain  Can't win after what the republican Mafia has done in the passed
8 years,and yet he will sit in the oval office and be president of USA.
My America is not of the people. It is ruled by the Mafia.  Sad but so
very true   It is money all the way down.   One name the Mafia uses is
"Severn Trent"

Exactly, BEERTbrain, so why do you continuously harp on it?

Painius  I hope to be out of Florida so my vote will be counted.  I did
not cotton to the fact that my ballot box was found two weeks after the
election in a field.  Did not like Florida state police harassing the
black American voters. All this would be unbelievable if it was not on
the news. I left out those KKK busses carrying people with base ball
bats.  Its very scarey to go to Florida poles. Its not good for your
health not to vote republican KKK  Bert

Why don't you go to a mail in ballot like Oregon?  Then those problems
will go away.  I think Obama's only chance is to pick Hillary for his
VP.  If his ego is too big to do that, then he will probably lose as
many Hillary supporters vot for McCain, a liberal Republican who is
pallitable to many Democrats.

mccain got roughly 9.5  million votes.  (
http://us-president.suite101.com/article.cfm/final_total_primary_popular_votes)
Hillary got roughly (not counting Fl and Michigan) 16.378,895  million
votes and Obama 16,579,895.   This means if half of Hillary's supporters
voted for mccain he would get about 17 million votes - now lets say
a quarter of the remaining stay home and only a quarter of Hillary's votes
go to Obama, Obama would still win the popular vote with about 20 million
(beating mcain by about 3 million votes).  While this is popular votes I
believe you would be hard pressed to give a scenerio where mccain loses by
3 million votes and still takes the presidency.

I also find it unlikely that only a quarter of people who voted for
Hillary would vote for Obama. Nor do I believe a full half of Hillary's
supporters would vote for mccain  - so Obama's popular lead will be even
greater than the 3 million shown above.

I agree with what you said, but I think Obama will get way more than 3
million
votes more than McCain. I don't think the seniors will vote for McCain when
they
hear that he wants to privatize their Social Security. And Obama wants to do
away with taxing seniors with less than $50,000 income. Those seniors in FL
and
elsewhere will vote for Obama in multitudes.

Obama Will never live in the White House. He will be lucky if he is not
shot in the head like all those the republican Godfather "did not cotton
to"  Just about everyone in Florida knows that is reality   Its possible
Obama and Hillary will get it back to back.  If they are lucky and
don;'t win the White House they should be very thankful,for that is the
reason they are still alive    What has happened to my America that can
make this reality?   So real it fits  So real it scares me.    Bert

Once Obama's there, they will no longer call it the "White" House.
