This is a country that votes for the candidate they like the most, regardless of anything else. Dubya was a recovering drug and alcohol addict, AWOL, business failure who couldn't hold down a job as a janitor if his name weren't Bush, yet he won, twice, because people thought he'd be pleasant to have a beer with. Given that, do you really imagine that either McCain, a raging old fart, or Clinton, a shrill, cold, calculating martinet, have a chance? Obama comes off as warm, funny and real. No amount of smear and spin is going to change that. I am not saying these are the correct reasons for voting for or against anyone; but they are the real reasons Americans choose who they do. And the superdelegates know that.
