I think Obama beats out Hillary with the popular vote, but I don't see Hil giving up that easy. The Clintons are "win at all costs" people, I forsee some superdelegate nastiness upcoming. All the while the Republicans can sit back and watch the Dems tear each other apart.

In the end, I think McCain gets the presidency. He has a long and distinguished record, is fairly moderate, and has a record of working well with both parties. McCain has a chance of getting Dem votes, Hil/Obama are too socialist to get many Rep votes. If it's McCain vs Obama, I think McCain wins a close one thanks to his strength on the issues and experience. If it's McCain vs Hillary, I think McCain destroys Hil because she scares people on both sides.
