Via Drudge where the GOP goes to get it's Official Word, This should become the Shock Story of the Day...

Republican presidential hopeful John McCain has confided to his inner circle that Hillary Clinton may yet be the Democratic nominee, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned, a development the senator from Arizona would personally welcome!

"Look, I know something about long odds, they had me written off last summer," McCain explained over the weekend, according to a top source.

McCain would prefer to go up against Clinton in the general election, insiders reveal.

He has instructed his campaign staff to "chill out" on countering Hillary Clinton's torrent of claims and promises as primary voting comes to end over the next 6 weeks.

McCain made the tactical decision to downplay Clinton's tale of Bosnia sniper fire, leaving some McCain staffers frustrated and perplexed.

Instead, the critical focus has been on Barack Obama. McCain's official website features 14 press releases taking on Obama since the first of the year, only 3 for the former first lady.

And it's no wonder, i mean, she's shooting Wisky and Duck Hunting... she's playing on the GOP Field about Experience and War...

Hillary is TOAST in November... otherwise John McCain wouldn't invite such a contest.

This is very revealing and it should really open the minds of Democrats.

UPDATE: I found this to be Relevant... on Democrats chances with Obama vs. John "Dole" McSame

Judging by almost any meaningful metric, the current political topography strongly favors the party this year. Unless Obama foolishly gets shamed into accepting public financing—and trust me, the Obama people are no fools, and they have less shame than you’d imagine—he will be the proverbial Mr. Universe at the beach, kicking sand in McCain’s face when it comes to advertising and the ground game. His positions on the issues are more popular than McCain’s. He can’t be blamed for Bush’s war or Bush’s recession. He is young and vibrant and inspiring, whereas McCain is not and not and not.

Also, for a minute, consider the differences between the two below videos... after viewing, is it any wonder McCain is loving the idea of going up against Hillary?

John McCain's Brand of Patriotism

Hillary Clinton's Brand of Patriotism

I think Hillary will lose this one... it's time for a new definition of Patriotism... once more civic minded, one not involving guns and war... maybe something like this that inspires people to become participants in our common destiny again
