2 points above.
1. I think Obama wants to win - that's why he decided to run.
2. blunder on
not picking Hillary: I think there are some factors involved.

Gaffs even came when he was announced as VP, got Obama's name wrong.  Sorry he can't help himself.

Verbal gaffs don't affect voters decisions, statistically. Remember folks, this race is about Obama and McCain. The VPs are cheerleaders that add image and icing to the Presidential candidates cake.
In a couple of weeks, the VP's won't be discussed that much, IMO.

Speculation.
But there is no reason to speculate. VP picks, are VP picks.
And yes, Brit, a certain percentage of Hillary supporters are voting for McCain as of current polling data. Enough, to make a tight state go to McCain.
But again, I'm speculating on what
may happen in 11 weeks.
