    Experience Gap

    Obama provides the clearer contrast against McCain's big issue - the Iraq War; Clinton provides a better match against McCain's "keeping the country strong" credentials. I fear that when push comes to shove in the General Election, the general public is going to freak out, having been fear-mongered by the Rs, and the gap between McCain's experience and Obama's is too big. Therefore I think Hillary will be the stronger candidate against McCain in the final analysis.
