Thoughts on the Race

Obama didn’t offer anything new and McCain showed that he was human. The problem with Obama’s lead so early is that he is stuck. He can’t say anything new or different for fear of offending/scaring off people that currently support him, but he also can’t stand still with the same message because it will become stale. It may not seem like it, but McCain has a luxury right now in that he can test the waters. He can attack from different points without any fear of retaliation. He can find a foothold and stick it in, gain a solid place, and wait/hope that Obama falters. People calling this race… Well, they may end up being right if McCain doesn’t play his cards right, but as it stands right now, this presidential race is far from over.

    On the other hand, McCain has no issue to run on, save personal attacks. Obama can take his time explaining policy goals in his administration, such as health care, education, veteran’s benefits, and hammer home the economy and his tax cuts. I’m not saying he can’t slip in the polls any, but all signs point to a 330+ EV win for the gentleman from IL.
