One should be somewhat fearful of predicting the future. My own track record is far from perfect. Election Day is over nine months away and many things could occur between now and then. Nonetheless, if I had to bet $100 at this very moment I would put my money on John McCain winning the election by at least eight percentage points. Barack Obama and his wife Michelle are simply too weird for the middle of the road voters. This man would not have been considered for the highest office in the land if he were white. Political correctness underpins his candidacy. Too many guilt tripped white liberals wanted to prove “I’m not a racist!” Obama took full advantage of this well-meaning silliness.
