151. You contradict yourself
On the one hand you say the more experienced/qualified candidates have to drop out first and Obama will get the nod because Americans are stupid and vote for celebrity appeal.

Then you conclude Obama will lose the general election if the Rethugs nominate McCain, presumably because his experience/qualifications will win out.

Are we to assume that voters will undergo a transformation between the primary and general elections -- that all of a sudden they will vote for experience rather than celebrity appeal -- or is it only the Democratic voters that are stupid?
