Not really, of course. But Robert Bluey, one of Washington's leading conservative voices online,
explains why he cast a vote for Barack Obama in today's Virginia Democratic primary. Contrary to the conventional wisdom, Bluey sees Obama as a weaker general election opponent against John McCain than Hillary Clinton:
Although national polls give Obama a small advantage over John McCain
in the general election, I firmly believe that McCain would handily
defeat the inexperienced Obama. Secondly, I fear what the Clinton
attack machine would do to McCain. Their ferocity would be worse than
George W. Bush’s ugly attacks in 2000. Anyone who reads this blog
regularly knows how much I dislike negative campaigning, and a Clinton-McCain matchup would be just that.
Townhall's Mary Katherine Ham says,"
unlike Rob, I feel much better about going up against Hillary in the general than Obama," but adds this comestible caveat:
It remains to be seen if I can cast a vote for a Clinton without throwing up a little bit in my mouth. I'll keep you posted.
