20. Nice try at rationalization, but Obama remains unelectable
Edited on Mon May-12-08 08:04 AM by Gman
and the big state argument is the biggest reason. McCain will win 40 states in November mainly because Obama does not connect with the white working class. The only big states Obama will win will be New York, California who would vote for a yellow dog if it ran as a Democrat for president and Illinois . Obama will not win in the South. Obama will not win the Western states that he did well in (ok, give him Washington state and Oregon). He will win a couple of the Mid-West swing states and a couple or three New England states like Massachusets. Hispanics in New Mexico will not turn out for Obama or anywhere else. Florida is out of the question.

If Obama is already the nominee then the General Election is over too. Get used to saying President McCain.
