i've heard the phrase "an historic election" so many times that i'm getting sick of it. i think they just like vocalizing the N in 'an.' anyway, i was always under the impression that obama had the clear advantage over mccain. after 8 years of a republican in office, it's no surprise that people are leaning towards the democratic candidate (even if they're republican themselves). it's as simple as that for me. sure, there are people who are racist enough or prejudiced enough to not vote for him because of his race, alleged ties to islam, etc., but i think the people who are motivated to vote for him because of those reasons far outnumber the others. it's just a whole lot more younger people planning on voting than in previous elections. simple. i just wanna know who's gonna be vp.
