I'm basically apolitical and haven't been following the presidential race, but that doesn't mean I don't have opinions. I may be uninformed, but given the huge volume of bullshit generated by political candidates, I actually think this gives me an advantage, so let's see.
In my view the Democrats committed suicide as soon as their field narrowed to just Obama and Clinton. No black or women has ever been elected president of the United States. It will inevitably happen someday, and it could be in this very election, but what are the odds? In other words, I long ago decided that the Republicans had already won the election, and I'm going to stick with that:
  • McCain: 270
  • Obama: 268
