Presidential Blah...

If you would not vote for an African American you will not be supporting Barrack Obama, if you would never support a woman then you will not support Hillary Clinton.  That is so simple it is mind boggling that the candidates think they will change those minds.  And the media is pushing them toward that end.  

John McCain is a weak war candidate.  With the recent escalation of violence in Iraq, and the "Cease Fire" (the real reason for the stopping the violence not the "surge") falling apart, McCain has nothing to stop this war, or "win" as he claims.  The "Surge", that he was for, has not worked.  

The candidates need to figure out where their bases are and shore up that support.  Then the candidates need to figure out a way to "unite" the dissension in the populous.  There is not clear winner in the presidential race. I think because of this the American public is going to feel more pain with whom ever becomes president.

Whoever wins will have a large portion of the populous hating them.  This country is in serious trouble.
