Re: Prediction: McCain vs Obama

This election is the poster-child of the "I'll vote for not who is best for the job, but who won't be the worst". My prediction comes with a caveat. In the past several days, I've heard the rightie radio hacks promoting a Hillary 3rd-party Independent run (ala Ross Perot). They claim that would be a good thing for Conservatives. Not sure I really follow that logic, except for the un-stated hope that Obama and Hillary will split the Dem vote, therefore McCain would win. I can't really see her doing that, unless she feels snubbed by not getting the VP slot. So my prediction is... Obama if Hillary doesn't run as an Independent; McCain if she does.
