Two things that should be said publicly to infuriate the left.
1. "The question is, will McCain's coattails be long, or very long?"
2. What strong conservative republican is waiting in the wings to take out Obama when his senate seat comes up for vote?
I think it's more likely that the Daley people will find a way to "ease out" Senator Obama if he does lose--Obama is turning into a BIG liability for Richard M. Daley in the long run.
