I may get chastised for this but I have said it before. The white male elects the president, not the black vote, the female vote, the gay/lesbian vote etc. Look at the past elections. Gore and Kerry overwhelmingly won the black vote and where are they now? Obama will have to win the white male vote...good luck. Despite what JHM or anyone believe's there are STILL people in this country both Repub and Dem that will not vote for a black person. (Maybe they will vote the white half of O) That's sad but it's true. If you THINK "Bubba in Alabama" is going to vote for Obama you have another thing coming. I think the thing with Rev Wright...(and the worst is yet to come) will hurt O a lot and hurt him in the ONE demographic he needs to win....white male vote.

It's not a matter of IF McCain will win..it's by how much.
