Selective loss of memory. Were you not surprised at the recent Republican losses of three Congressional seats to the Democrats in spite of the efforts to link the candidates to Obama? From what I can tell the democratic strategy is to make forays into Republican strongholds and convert them to their side. The GE dynamics is very different. If we go by your theory then McCain is going to win CA,NY and IL because he won the elections in those states in the Republican primary. The GE theme: A Bush third term or something totally new and fresh approach.

>>How do you explain how a super candidate like Obama can be so badly beaten in major Dem primaries when he is the supposed nominee? As much as I dislike Hillary, I can understand why she does not quit. Obama is going to slide in under the wire before his associations wreck his candidacy (good judgement claims?)- he is lucky the stuff did not come out sooner. The coming political season will be ugly.<< Bob - When the choice is between two candidates who pretty much share the same set of policy ideas, other factors come into play. When Obama is up against McCain only, he will do fine. Just watch. - Allen
