Yes its going to be a motha of a landslide. I almost feel sorry for mcain..almost. this is a movement that hasnt topped off yet. you didnt mention the bank meltdown in your original analysis although im not saying you didnt see it coming.This is more than just a great campaign or a hatred of bush, althought thats part of it. I definately see a moving back to the center left, which, i beleive is the natural political posture for america, 21st century. the right goes on about how "america is a conservative right of center culture" with all eveidence to the contrary. on just about any single issue polled, abortion, church - state , corporate taxes, health care, etc., we are center left. add to that the bush catastrophe and nuts like pat robertson praying for the end of the world and we are moving sharply left. its a good thing.
