Yes, which is sad. But I still think, even with those factors you mentioned, he could win on a national ticket. I would just think that 2008 might be too soon b/c he *just* got elected to the senate. Usually, presidential candidates have a good list of past careers to point to and say, "look, I did this!" :-) Obama doesn't really have anything to point to...yet. John Edwards also didn't have anything when he ran for prez and then vice prez....but of course, he did come real close to winning, so I dunno.
It'd be interesting if the candidates were Condi Rice vs Obama. Who would the racists vote for?
