Well things are getting interesting as to how the election will turn out. The conventional wisdom has been that Dems. will gain congressional seats in November, but, based on this, they may not be able to build on their gains in the Nov. ‘06 mid term elections.

It is very important who McCain chooses at this point. It is the South and Midwest dems who will not support Obama, but it is those same Republicans who will not support a liberal republican VP.

Choose somebody like Romney or Guilliani and you have the same republican problem in the Bible Belt and Heartland and tie the race up again. So far I have seen nothing that lets me think we as a party are going to play any card we have in our hand well this year, just like every other year the country-club crowd has gotten in charge though this one does seem worse.

Absolutely on target!! McCain's VP choice is critical and if he chooses poorly, there could actually be a close race between the people not voting for the Obamessiah, and people not voting for McCain.
