I sure do hope you smart people are correct and Obama is dead meat with the Biden pick but I think you may be underestimating how badly the media wants to elect Obama.
Biden can be packaged up by the media as a middle-of-the road democrat with tons of experience to advise the Chosen One as he rights the ship of state.
Most of the voters don’t even know who Biden is and probably won’t watch the VP debate. The next morning they will be offered a penetrating news analysis of the debate that obscures Biden’s rambling answers and paints the debate as a runaway win for Biden against whoever is the Republican VP.
Also, as pointed out above, it’s not like there is an abundance of likeable, experienced, well-known Republican names for McCain to choose from.
Also, there are a lot more registered Democrats than Republicans and they seem to be a lot more interested in doing the ground work needed to elect a candidate. Has everyone contributing to this blog contributed to the McCain candidacy?
I think this thing is a long way from over and we and the nation will be lucky if McCain can squeeze though for a victory.
I would love for someone to convince me I’m wrong. Any takers?
