I have have absolutely no hope of winning this election against Hillary, but with Obamma as the nominee, we might have a slim chance is the Democrats fracture. It's our only chance, and it that were the case, I would hold my nose, salute the flag and and vote for McLaim.

We would have the same problems the Dem's are having in running against Obamma, but at least we would have the issues where Hilary only has gender and tiny bit of experience to run on. Every time someone is critical of Obamma the MSM calls them a racist and they have so little difference in policy that they can't adjust.

We would have national security to run on, and the economy where Obamma has surrender and tax increases.

We would have a slim chance to win if we can turn out our folks. It is the only chance we have.

I see just the opposite. If Obama is the nominee, Chief Justice Roberts might as well be in Denver to swear him in because he is going to win. Against Hillary we have a chance because enough conservatives despise her that they would be lining up to vote against her even if they have to vote for McCain to do it. Also, with Obama's current and likely final lead in elected delegates Hillary will have to fight dirty which will split the party, leaving Obama's supporters disillusioned about how the 'Rats really act.

Obama will trounce McCain. He will be the young stud against the old man, a reprise of Clinton versus Dole. Just imagine the picture on stage during the debates with the oldest candidate ever receiving a major party nomination on his first try at the office and in Congress for a quarter of a century against a 46 year old vigorous young man. It will be the past vs the future, the Washington establishment against change. McCain is a dead man walking in such a confrontation.

McCain's stand on the war is unpopular among most Americans, which Obama will exploit. McCain voted against the Medicare prescription drug program, a correct stand among Reps, but not among most seniors and groups like AARP. Obama has energized the Dem base, especially the young and African-Americans. McCain has depressed the Rep base, especially conservatives.

Hillary would be a far better candidate than Obama for the Reps. She has high negatives, along with her husband and the baggage he brings. Hillary voted for the war. Hillary is not likeable and is shrill. Hillary will depress Dem support if she takes the nomination, especially if she uses super delegates to steal it from Obama, the people's choice. Hillary will energize the Rep base far more than Obama or McCain.

If Hillary is the nominee, McCain has a slim chance. If Obama is the nominee, McCain has no chance.
