Ronald Reagan would vote for McCain

I wrote this post on another subject of Why Obama will Win, but I think it's appropriate for this discussion:
Why Obama will Win
I read the article and actually found it to be very insiteful. I know there are a lot of Republicans who don't like McCain, but what I see happening this election year is the lost Republican moderates standing up and saying no to the right wing rhetoric and dogma, and the Democrats in the same vein saying no to the left wing rhetoric and good old boy system. I am personally sick and tired of a Republican party who feels it has to constantly pander to the Rush Limbaughs and Pat Robertsons of this country. McCain and Obama both have certain views that still appeal to the far right & left, but there has been a large group of Americans who have been waiting for a candidate who does not feel like another cog in the system. I do, however, think he is right in saying that McCain would have a better chance against Clinton than Obama. I also have talked with people who normally would never consider voting Democratic who are enamored with Obama because of his ability to rally people together and his fresh viewpoints. The first time I heard him speak, I predicted that Hillary might actually have a fight on her hands, and folks thought I was crazy, that white America would never accept a black candidate, but that viewpoint seems to be fading. Would they accept a woman? Yes, but not Hillary. I personally hope that Obama gets the nomination, and then I think we will have an interesting campaign year.
