The great irony, I think, is that Clinton's a better bet to beat McCain. Obama, I don't know how well he'd do under serious fire.
We do know Clinton can withstand heavy fire, though. She's losing at the moment, but by a narrow margin, and she's carried the big states most likely to go Blue in the general. She's done this with the media entirely against her, whereas they have (for the moment) treated Obama gently. If Obama wins the nomination, the media WILL turn on him, no question. And when they do, will he be able to hold up as well as Clinton has?

I honestly don't know.
