Obama has no experience/record.

You know, I think that if 2008 does end us being McCain vs. Obama, I think McCain will win. I think that when most people talk about Obama being inexperienced, it pertains to his time in national politics. In a general election match-up, I feel that McCain would pull the inexperienced card and play upon the public's fear of terrorism. I just see him phrasing the campaign as "do you want someone with experience and a veteran, over someone who lacks experience." I know some people will argue the Obama would still win, but McCain is just as popular among the electorate and doesn't remind people of George Bush. This is just my two cents.

Anything can happen. Still, I wonder if Obama is even to try in '08. I mean Mark Warner, Russ Feingold, and Bill Frist were all perceived to be planting the seeds for a Presidential run and decided not to, and I think they were more serious about than Obama seems to be.

Has anyone ever considered the possibility that a Hillary vs. Obama battle in the primaries could kill both of their chances?
