some reasons why Obama can beat Mccain (IMO)

1) white guilt. white people have been looking for ways to show how un-racist they are, and an Obama sticker on your car means "Im down with the blacks".
2) Mccain has no wiggle room. He has spent the last 4 years taking firm stances on everything and lest he be called a flip flopper (we know how well that went for kerry) he is going to have to stick with it. Obama however really hasnt said much. he is a clean slate as of right now.. he has kept his shit pretty vague.
3) Romney (or someone close to that) is going to be McCains VP... and yeah, that helps him out a little with the fiscal conservatives, but Obama has that wild card... whatever sector he needs, he can pick up with the VP.
4) so far, he has no real skeletons in the closet, no bad marks on his record... not enough of a voting history to really pin him down on anything... which is why he is getting attacked on being politically wet behind his huge ears... that is about all they have on him. McCain however has previously alienated about half the republicans on multiple issues, as well as having that Gook comment that will surely arise many times over the next few months.
the only thing going against Obama really is that a huge part of his constituency is 18-25... they dont vote. of course every year they say they are... then they realize that they had to register to do that and just tell everyone that they did vote.

Hhhm... I don't think you could say that the candidate who has brought in the most votes from Americans (I don't have my totals in front of me ) has it going agansit him that people in a certain demographic don't vote. 
As he gets momentum, he brings in more votes from all demographics. He's not going to lose any of the support he already has, which is pretty damn considerable, but he will take votes from Hillary, and this was already demonstrated in the Potomac primary. Even if she wins Texas, Ohio, and Pennsylvania, she isn't going to be doing enough to catch up with him, which is why she fights for delegates she already agreed were not to be seated - its an act of desperation.
