Thanks.
The information on the 1st page will become WAY MORE in-depth as to polls & how the electoralcollege map is looking for the general election of McCain vs Obama after Clinton officially drops out & Obama is nominated.
So everyone can look for how things REALLY are stacking up on the 1st page in the weeks & months to come

OMG About that Karl Rove opinion article:
Here we go again! The republican party is using the 'flip-flop' technique they used on Kerry less than 4 years ago. It's as if Rove doesn'tunderstand that it's OK to adapt to a situation. Just because you say or do something at one moment does not mean you can't change as the circumstancesaround you develop over time. This sort of hate mongering diminishes the importance and influence of other important agendas.

Oh it is/will go both ways.... Obama has already attacked McCain numerous times & it's not even the head-to-head election yet....
But yes, it will be a battle.
And having already seen early state polls, the electoral college looks like it's going to be damn close just like the last 2elections.... as of now that is, lots could change. (state-by-state coverage will be coming soon on the 1st page)

That very well might be where the Vice President comes into play.... a more religious/conservative VP is likely (& hopefully) what McCainwill pick.

I'll post the current Electoral College charts on this page so that we can look back in the months down the road and see where the electoralcollege stood on the last day before the General Election started.
From this point on though the in-depth General Election coverage will be on page 1

And the President of The United States: Barack Obama.
Rethugs, get prepared for a slaying by Obama.
McCain has failed to acknowledge that he knows anything long of foreign policy, which he has showed he is more than inadequate to lead this country.
Obama/Webb, Richardson, Sebellius, or any other person besides Billary is a winning combo!! WHOOP!

Actually you'd be wrong***
These next 5 months should be fun.... by NO MEANS does Obama already have this wrapped up.
***McCain Trusted More Than Obama on Economy, Iraq, National Security
When it comes to the economy, 47% of voters trust John McCain more than Barack Obama. Obama is trusted more by 41%. The latest RasmussenReports telephone survey also found that, when it comes to the War in Iraq, McCain is trusted more by 49% of voters. Obama is preferred by 37%. McCain has aneven larger edge-53% to 31%--on the broader topic of National Security. These results are little changed from a month ago.

Thank you. Nice to know people appreciate it.
These upcoming months should be fun. I think people will definitely enjoy the 1st page coming up here.... it'll have the breakdown of pretty mucheverything that you need to know for the General Election. This can be your 1 stop shop for politics while you're on NT
Of course the political articles will continue to come too as they have been on the new pages. Nice to read for some editorials and differentperspectives.

You can bet your last dollar that both will be out at these major states continuing to campaign. I can guarantee you we will hear both go back and forth ateach very soon.

Clinton losing.... how many Clinton supporters (what %) won't vote for Obama. That's goign to be the key thing.
Well, the way I'm thinking is that by the time November rolls around, a solid 5 + months from now, those currently angry will have settled down and come totheir senses and
will still vote democrat.
But until then, I think what has to happen is that Obama AND Clinton need to be out campaigning for the Democractic party. He needs to go out and speak tothose who are pissed
and talking about voting for Mccain, mainly women. Together they need to help unify the party.
