Obama's opened up a huge lead over McCain according to Newsweek.

Doesn't surprise me at all. I was wondering when the numbers would go up. McCain could barely stay even with Obama when both Hillary and McCain were ganging up on him. You see, the Republicans have a slight problem. They are almost in a no-win situation. If things stay poor, Obama will get elected for "change." If things go well, then people will feel less worried about voting for Obama despite his lack of experience. The fact that things are going well in Iraq helps Obama - as long as Obama says that he will not withdraw troops too quickly to jeopardize blah blah blah. You get it?
I could be wrong, but I think there is nothing McCain can do to win the race. There are only two possibilites for a McCain victory. 1) Obama implodes - either in the debates or due to scandal. 2) Hillary stabs him in the back. The electoral college isn't going to save McCain because most of the battleground states are going to go to Obama.
Oh well, looks like America will continue trending left towards the Europeans.
