Road to the White House

It'll be McCain vs. Obama

I could be wrong, but I don't think the Republicans could have hoped for a better result from the Democrat's primaries. With such a close competition which will (likely) last for months Obhama and Clinton are going to engage in progressively more agressive and divisive politics; certainly, they will attempt to appear like they're just in a friendly competition but a combination of subtile digs and leaks to the media will do a lot of damage; John McCain doesn't even have to work to put a negative spin on either candidate because the dirt will be dug up by the Democrats, and the message will be spread by the Democrats. When this is finally resolved there will (potentially) be a lot of bitter feelings on both sides of the competition and the supporters of the losing candidate might have difficulties voting for the winning candidate; it will take a lot of time to heal these divisions and the length of the primary campaign is eliminating the time that is necessary to heal these wounds.

John McCain is not (particularly) liked by conservative republicans but, at this point in time, his job is simple ... In order to win he just has to let the Democrats battle over who's big-government social program isn't liberal enough, who's too inexperience or lacks judgement, and who engages in the most double-talk, and then just convince the conservative republicans that no matter how bad he is, he will be better than any of the Democrat candidates.

I just think that McCain is the best of the Republicans. Obama is a good choice too though. So really, eaither way I'll be ok with whoever is President (now that Hillary's hopefully gone...)

I am not trying to bash Barrack Obama, I am just trying to show you he might not be a sure shot like you think.

I'll be putting my full support behind McCain, that's for sure.

This country needs a moderate, not some batty extremist, whether it be from the left or right.

Besides, giving Obama or Hillary the reins with a Democratic Congress behind them scares the living shit out of both me and my paycheck.

I prefer my government to accomplish absolutely nothing, thankyouverymuch.

^^Nice analysis

I'll probably vote for McCain as the lesser of two evils because I absoutely despise Hillary and I'm not too keen on Obama either. However, until (if) he gets the nomination, I will keep my criticisms to the minimum. While I could live with a President Obama, the thought of another President Clinton makes me and my wallet shudder to our very cores.

 fyi I support McCain I want Obama to win so he actually has competition. If Hilary gets the nomination McCain will most definitely win without much of a contest.

I'm leaning more for McCain.
nice analysis Rocketpig.
i think McCain has a good chance because Americans usually vote for a moderate.

Whether McCain or Obama, I think either will do this country some good. Hiller is too hell bent on getting universal healthcare and less on what this country really needs at this time.

Im supporting McCain though, hes the most moderate and experienced. We need this to unite us after being so torn apart.
