It looks as if Obama is going to chalk up more big wins in VA, MD and DC today, all areas that Hillary probably thought she would do well in. Voting is reportedly very heavy - which is a good sign for Obama. In previous elections, the so-called "black" vote has never fulfilled the promise that its numbers would suggest it has. Black Democrats have never voted as religiously as say white Republicans - but this year looks different. If the black Democrats can make it to the polls in November in the same numbers they are getting to the polls now, the Republicans will lose the White House for sure.
I think Obama or Clinton both would be good Presidents, certainly light years ahead of the brain-damaged ex-pothead idiot we currently have. But I must say I am pleased that Obama seems to be pulling ahead. It has troubled me that America has been flipping back and forth between two ruling families for so long - that is not the America I know. That is the sort of thing that happens in a banana republic or third world country, not a major democracy with millions of talented citizens.
