" It's a very uphill battle and frankly Obama has to be so well organized that every single possible Obama voter needs to vote." I think you're assuming that every possible McSame voter will vote. They don't seem very energized or enthusisatic compared to the Obama voters. Many of them considered McSame a "traitor" just a few months ago. I believe they'll become even more dispirited when it becomes obvious just how OLD McCain has gotten.

Are people telling the truth? ----------------------------------------------- "Some of the largest differences are by region. Seventy-two percent of those who live in the West say most people they know would vote for a black person for president. Sixty-six percent in the Northeast and 64 percent in the Midwest agree. But the figure is lowest in the South, where just 54 percent say most people they know would vote for an African-American for president. 33 percent there say most people they know would not." I don't know, but even in the west, the best region, you are excluding 28% of the voters right off the top... before anything else is considered. It's a very uphill battle and frankly Obama has to be so well organized that every single possible Obama voter needs to vote. Yes, and he will be. How do I know that? Because I know its been that way for him his whole life. Uphill is all he knows. Occasionally he flags but eventually, he gets back into overdrive. The election will probably be close.....it shouldn't be.......McBush should lose by a country mile....but then Obama is half black. That means a lot in this country.
