Misanalysis
You're making the invalid assumption - or shall we say presumption - that Obama has zero support except from liberals, the young, and blacks. Other demographic groups may prefer Hillary to Obama to some degree, but this in no way precludes the very real possibility that they would support Obama over McCain in November.
I smell a Republican rat.

Obama has some support among that group, but consistent exit polls show it is by no means enough to secure a win in November, since many have no intention of voting for Obama. America is in a serious economic crisis, and by no means ready to try on vague ideas of "change" and "hope" when they need relief from their problems, not some lectures.
Obama's biggest obstacle is he will be portrayed as a liberal in classic fashion by Repubs, and this is always a winning formula...why? Because this country hasn't ever elected a President as liberal as Obama, who resembles Dukakis or McGovern in his political persuasion. I said it before and say it again, I challenge any Obamabot to show me one true liberal President in the last 80 years...JFK? No. LBJ? No... Clinton? No. Truman or FDR? No. There is just no precedent for his brand of liberalism and it isn't going to change because of him. To assume it would is supreme arrogance.
