Dear correspondents, and various blogs/fora/groups:
I write this just moments before his acceptance speech in Denver.
It is not because he cannot win...and it won't be racism, alone, that will keep Obama from winning.
The local/national races will go to Democrats, since the Republicans have really upset the middle with their incompetence and the war.
People will vote McCain for President because they don't want a single party to be in control.
I hope I'm wrong.
