I was wondering if anyone would like to discus the Republican situation, and the possible candidates that Obama would have to face in the November election?

Honestly, I don't think the Republicans are going to be much of a threat. From what I've seen of their campaigns (and it should be noted that this consists mainly of ads on South Carolina TV networks while visiting my grandparents) they're running on the same old moral/religious stint that is so strongly identified with the current Disaster-In-Chief. Current opinion of him being what it is, I can't see many going for either of them. And honestly, the "Republican" label right now could very well be what does them in. Americans are lazy, and the laziest among them who actually bother to get to the polls may simply see "Republican", think of the current mess, and go for something else.
That being said, Huckabee does have a killer last name. We'll have to watch out for that one. SERIOUS BUSINESSSSSSSSSS D:<
In other news, what the ******** happened to Giuliani? Did a bear eat him, or did he lose support by sticking Republican? You decide! 8D

I think you're right about Guiliani, but the main issue with him is his bad chioce for a supporting staff. So most Evangilist have rejected him for imploying a man accused of molesation (accused but not proven) so that's half of the Republican party that will not suport him. Huckabee is the issue I was wondering about. As I have said Evangilists are half of the republican party and have stated that if huckabee doesn't win nomination that they are going to leave the party and run him as an independant. SO that should make it better for Democrats becasue a 25, 25 splinter effect will always lose to a 50 percent backing on one canidate.

McCain has some great momentum right now, and is winning in polls in states that should be Huckabee's (see South Carolina). Unlike what's been said, a McCain as a republican nominee could be disastrous for the democrats, particularly Hillary. Huckabee going independent would kill our party, and I think he knows that.

I do say the McCain has momentum, but the republican thing still stands, because look at the poll, Huckabee has been running in the 3rd place since Iowa, and Edwards from then Democratic side has had the same issue and has already dropped out of the running, but Huckabee is still going to stick it out. So if he has yet to falter, that's something. And Thompson dropped out earlier and he was nearly tied with Huckabee.
But in other notes, I looked on Yahoo's polls for the fifty states, and It seams that while Hillary has had a recent winning streak, if you include New Hampshire, Nevada and MI, Hillary is only leading in California and New Jersey, the rest Obama is in the lead (and in some cases by a lot)

According to RCP, out of the major Feb 5 states, Hillary is leading in Cali, NY, NJ, Mass, Missouri, Alabama and Conneticut, while Obama only takes only Illinois and Georgia. And a lot of those are by fairly large margins now with Edwards out. I did get a kick out of my dad when he called Hillary and co. the "Hillary Mafia". I'll keep my hopes up for Obama, but it's not looking too good for him.

I saw that, the polls switched on me after I posted the comment, it was a simple mistake, as the polling has changed quite frequently in this race.

I think a lot of it is coming from the standpoint my mother has taken; "he's going to be assassinated". She keeps saying that because he is a black man, even if he makes it to the presidency, within two years someone will kill him, and he is too good of a man to be killed.
I think it's a weird standpoint, but that's what people (at least in Missouri) are thinking.

Now for an update on general thoughts by me. I know it's weird but lets look at this:
Romney is out of the running, giving McCain his delagets (unoffically right now, but still) and McCain is unoffically going to be the GOP representitive. And secondly... where is an acctual pleaged delagate counter. i've been using Yahoo's with clinton at 630, and Obama with 625, but I just went to Obama's website and it says that he has 910 and Clinton is with 830-something, and CNN said something about Clinton having 1033 to Obama's 950-something. So who is right?
