Well thats arguable. I continuing Dem primary will keep a lot of media focus on both candidates and away from McCain. McCain will be able to concentrate on the general, the question is: is anyone listening when there is a knock down drag out on the other side of the isle?
And it will get ugly now. Clinton is finally doing what she should have down in the first place, and REALLY attack Obama's inexperience and naive comments, especially when it comes to foriegn policy.
If Hillary wins, I think she has a great chance to beat McCain, but I think McCain would destroy Obama in a general. Obama's rhetoric is already starting to wear thin on his "hope based" support. Thats problem when you run on emotion and not issues. When the rush wears off, all those inspiring statements quickly become cliche.
And imagine how McCain could attack Obama in ways that Clinton can't? On taxes? On foreign policy? On experience (which matters much more non-democrats)? My only worry with McCain against Obama is if he takes a bad turn in health, as his speech seems to have slowed of late. The age concern could be deadly.
