That's interesting. Last summer, someone asked me who I thought would be the next President and I replied "Some rich white guy". Now that I've heard Obama, I do think that he has a very good chance of being elected. Just how many voters will either vote for McCain or stay home is unknown. Not very many people are willing to give what may be seen as a "racist" answer to pollsters. Having said that, Obama may have attracted enough new voters to offset the bigots. It'll be something to watch. john _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
