Why Obama can win the GE - This War was dumb To McCain/Romney, and Voter turn out!
Obama is the only one that can tell any of the GOP candidate that we shouldn't have never gone into this war, and that this was bad judgment, and the American people don't need bad judgment leading them. He may not have voted against the IWR, but what he did was just as good; stood up at an anti war rally (do you know any of our candidates who did?) and poke eloquently against the war.

He also clearly said he would not have voted for the Resolution while being interviewed on Charlie Rose, circa 2002.

In other words, the GOP candidate cannot just fast track to "can't look back, now that we are there"....which is an argument that a Hillary Clinton and a John Edwards would have to go along with. Barack Obama can take us back, and show what a folly it was. Only he can do that, and it shuts up McCain pretty good....no matter what McCain says.

------------------------

Also, look at the voter turn out numbers in each state and see who is bringing in the youth vote, and the first time voters. These are the voters that haven't come out big before, and voters that can make a difference in a lot of states. Obama is energizing voters and bringing numbers to our base.

------------------------

Think about it and understand that is exactly been Obama's two messages; give him a working majority, and we the people can achieve change.

Can't wait for his acceptance speech tonight!
