I contend that it is not too difficult to predict who will win the 2008 Presidential election:
1. The polls already have Hillary Clinton with a big lead over Barak Obama for the Democrats and I don't see any Republican in this race who can defeat either of them.
2. If you look at who has the most money it is clear that Hillary and Barak are both raising more funds than anyone else in either party. Mitt Romney is the fund raising leader in the Republican party. See my web site for the exact numbers.
3. If it were only a matter of money (and money does buy votes) who ever wins the Democratic nomination will be the next president.
4. Right now it looks like a three horse race for the Republicans with Rudy Giuliani, Fred Thompson and Mitt Romney all having a chance for their party's nomination. However, as I said before, it really doesn't matter who the Republican nominee is.
5. So I predict Hillary and Barack will be slugging it out for the Democratic party nomination, which will also decide the Presidential election.
There is no clear cut Republican front runner. If the Republicans can't even figure out who they want as their candidate, how can they possibly defeat a political machine like the Democrates have put together.
And don't even get me started on the war in Iraq.
No, I submit to you that this race is clearly between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.
So, which of them is going to win?
Hillary Clinton has more money than Barack Obama has.
Females rank higher on the political power chart than black males.
I recently read some people are forecasting that up to 25% of white female Republicans are likely to switch sides in 2008 and vote for Mrs. Clinton.
And, what about black women? Are they going to vote for the black candidate or will they vote for the white female. I think it will be split, some will vote black and some will vote female, which will dilute the power of the black female vote.
I have said as far back as 5 years ago that Barack Obama will be our first black President. Unfortunately, I fear this is not Barack's time. I predict that Hillary is going to win this election by a land slide.
