Actually, it is the polls that are more accurate (which isn't saying much, because the nature of polling is changing in this election due to more voters living w/out landlines) than the pundits at this point.

They seem unwilling to go with their race baiting leads with Wright. However, there is absolutely no solid evidence that the Wright story has hurt Obama one bit among his supporters, we know he is unlikely to lose a single vote in the African American community, because they are voting to save the race, not the candidate, and the numbers haven't moved since Super Tuesday much at all, despite Clinton's big wins.

No, I don't think you can say anyone is "unelectable" at this point, because there just doesn't seem to be much enthusiasm out there for ANY of the three candidates outside their core supporters, who are refusing to budge.

With the voters split three ways, this is a race tailor made for a third party or indie run. Not even the big bogeyman of the angry black man can scare voters off their preference.

Which leave the mysterious and unknown gap between the Dems & Repubs the MSM refuses to talk about, the swing/independent voters.

Party partisans seem to be saying "none of the above". Hence the Dem deadlock, and underwhelming support for McCain.
