Or, are you saying that the Obama tide is causing Republicans who wouldn't generally vote in the election to go out and vote for John McCain because Obama is the other choice? Gimme a break.
Obama is not inspiring anyone to vote McCain, trust me. If you said he was keeping people away from the polls, that would be one thing. But he's not creating votes for McCain, except for the possible contigency (small and not worth considering) who wouldn't normally vote but in this election are compelled to because of the Obama threat as they see it. Good luck hitching your wagon to that hope.

I think you will find that, like Hillary before him, that Obama will inspire Republicans to go vote...

The bolded area is what I meant. We'll see.
