>> It's going to be another one of those crazy close elections. I actually think a McCain landslide is possible. Why? Because the facts aren't out on this Obama character yet. The liberal media has totally given him a pass -- even Fox News has refused, for example, to run ads pointing out his connection with terrorist Ayres. The other news outlets have refused to so much as MENTION the name of Ayres (in fairness, I believe that George S. on ABC did, at one point, ask a single question about Ayres, but that was quite some time ago). But the MSM will eat its young if necessary to get a good story. And once the MSM starts to crack on vetting Obama -- on Ayres, on his inexperience, on his extremism and voting record, on his weakness -- there could be a piling on. Now, 95% of blacks are going to vote for Obama and it wouldn't matter if Obama cut his first wife's throat in a bloody double murder, they're going to vote for him. Hell or high water. And the Hard Left, which includes some of those blacks, are going to vote for him, too. But there is plenty of material there that could be a huge a problem for the Obama campaign. Something as simple as a C. Powell endorsement of McCain could swing the election. But a landslide requires a true release of the facts surrounding Obama such that Americans understand the risk of electing him. This isn't over yet. The man is dangerous. And some of these liberal media people are going to have second thoughts about letting him through unvetted.
