Re: Obama WILL be the next president

My prediction from another forum:

Clinton/Edwards vs. McCain/Huckabee

Clinton wins primaries barely, without superdelegates she'd be behind by a bit. McCain has it in the bag.

McCain wins general with 48% of the vote, Nader takes 3%.


I hope I'm wrong. Gobama?
