    It is a conspiracy and you have hit the nail on the head .

    The big money is out of the race on this one because no one remembered to bring a horse to the track .

    Thats cause the track is muddy and the fence posts are rotting away and the seats are all wet and no one really cares .

    So the big money is going to remind people just how much they like to win but first they are going to remind you of how to lose big time .

    Then when you win you can pay them back for their generosity in helping you out over the tough times . The next 4 years are going to be those tough times and those people with some credit left and a few bucks might be able to risk it all and take a chance and make some real money .

    They of course will need to do all the work while the rich just loan out a few dollars to help the poor think they are getting ahead .

    This will create a hole new batch of millionaires who's stories of success in troubled times will reinforce the idea that hard work pays off and everyone needs to get to work at any job they can find and move right on up to become Bill Gates someday with some hard work and just a wee little bit of luck .

    It is either an intentional omission, or Yahoo is completely inept when it comes to making their data base current. This is probably a leading indicator that Mr. Obama is the next president of the Unites States. This omssion smells like fear to me, and if they dont want him to be the next president, then they should be afraid.

    An "outsider" might just reveal how corrupt things have been for the last 8 years; perhaps Yahoo has played a roll. If it is just an oversight, it is inexcusible.

    McCain is a registered english surname.

    P.S. Those Obama supporters, you can e-mail to yahoo answers.

    Does that really bother you...perhaps it is because McCain is a recognized American, english name. And Obama is not. Hence, our dictionary is english not muslim! CS.

    It can only check english not arabic names plus YA knows he will never be President so they have'nt bothered to update their spell check.

    Obama. Seems to work.

    Yahoo Answers probably would not want to see an Obama presidency, though. They probably would not even like McCain or Reagan or even Mao--too liberal.

    In fact I blatantly heard a yahoo exec say "Pull it" meaning of course pull the word "Obama" from spell check .
