Prediction

Obama is going to beat McCain...badly. I am thinking maybe 57/43 in the popular vote...or perhaps 56/43 with the Naders of the world getting their 1%. When McCain stands side-by-side with Obama in those televised debates, there will be a glaring difference in charisma, charm and youthfulness. McCain will likely offer more substance in his answers but it won't matter because Obama knows how to inspire based on nothing. Is that real leadership? Nope. But it will get the job done in this case.
