I think this is just more sour grapes from the Hillary supporters. It
has been said that here in California if we hadn't moved the
presidential primary up to February that Obama would have been the
winner here the other day too. That's how much California opinion has
changed since Feb. Hillary did not run a good campaign and I think shot
herself in the foot all the time. She and McCain both appear manic and
the public doesn't like manic people. Obama always displays a cool not
manic and that in itself will win voters. He will have a tough road to
hoe given that the screwball right will try to swiftboat him but I don't
think that will work this round. In fact I am one of those who think
the Republicans didn't actually want to be in the White House for the
collapse of the American economy and the mess that president will have
to deal with so they are just letting McCain have his little "time in
the sun."
