It's like an old Laurel and Hardy cartoon now: "That's another fine mess you have got us into," and so on. McCain is disliked by the right and not disliked by just enough other Americans that he could squeak in, despite running on policies that are deeply unpopular. Hillary comes with 50% negatives nationally and now the image of the candidate who couldn't put away the upstart, so she has to claw her way to the nomination and hope she gets 2025 delegates by the skin of her teeth. Hardly inspiring to folks outside her camp. Obama has the experience issue and now the Wright millstone around his neck. The Democratic Party leadership (to use the term loosely) is paralyzed and divided, a deer in the headlights in the year when they had the best chance to win since 1976. It could be hard to see any of them being elected with enough political capital to do much of anything except show up for work every day and fight with the other kids inside the Beltway.
