Obama's grandma just died of cancer in Hawai'i. Just before Election Day:
Knowing how this campaign has gone, and the virulence of Obama's followers toward anyone who does NOT support Obama AND the "race card" element in play? Most people will change their vote to NOT look as if they are kicking the mourner in the face...or perhaps not vote at all to avoid this.
That can well result in a landslide for Obama, one he might not have gotten otherwise.
What a bit of luck for Obama that McCain and his campaign has no chance to counter without looking like a complete jerk. Shit.

Madelyn Payne Dunham was 86.
Obama announced the news from the campaign trail in Charlotte, N.C. The joint statement with his sister Maya Soetoro-Ng said Dunham died late Sunday at her Honolulu apartment after a battle with cancer.
