I beg to differ from the above analysis. McCain’s Mercury eventhough is exalted in the Rasi chart is debilitated in the Navamsa. Does not bode well for attaining the Presidency. A planetary strenght is ascertained more from the navamsa chart. His Saturn dasa will be coming to an end and usually a dasa at its end does not do good. Also, transit Saturn will be in the 8th to his natal moon (Ashtama Shani) and also transiting over his natal Sun – detrimental and also expect some scandals to break out that would ultimately bring him down.
Obama is currently runing the dasa of Jupiter in Lagna (Jupiter gets neecha banga raja yoga and strong in Navamsa). Also the bukthi is of Moon in its own star – Rohini and exalted in the 5th house and the antara is of the 9th lord Mercury.
Obama will win this election handily.

Thank you, Shiva, for your comment.
I stand by my prediction, although I am rooting for Obama now.
I’m certainly aware that McCain’s Mercury is debilitated in Navamsa.
However, traditional Vedic astrology does not say it makes it weak.
It makes it “evil”. In my experience, Rasi chart shows the actual experience, while Navamsa acts like a “shadow”.
So in my interpretation (confirmed by experience), the exalted planet in Rasi fulfills its promise. But, if the same planet is debilitated in Navamsa, living that planet’s experience can be very painful.
The planets in Rasi show their effects throughout the person’s life, but these experiences become accentuated during their dasas. So far, throughout the long life of McCain, this success bringing Mercury has been placing McCain on top of his career, often almost despite McCain himself. The only reason he lost the nomination in 2000 is because he was running Saturn/ Sun dasa. The Sun in the 12th, being “at war” with Saturn brought the loss, but also the honor. Thanks to that campaign, McCain became household name.
So I am sure that McCain would win (unfortunately). But he will be sorry he did, as the U.S. is heading for the worst time in its history, starting next year, with 2010 being most painful (that’s from the Western astrology view point).
On the other hand, a planet debilitated in Rasi, like Obama’s Jupiter, brings evil outright. I know, as I have the same Jupiter like Obama and Princess Diana, being born in the same year. My Jupiter is also “neecha bhanga” and is strong in Navamsa. All my Jupiter bhukties are painful beyond belief. Princess Di died during her debilitated Jupiter dasa.
Add 6th house relationship with bhukti lord in case of Obama, and you cannot expect anything good. Obama’s turn should come in his Saturn’s dasa (if he so chooses, and there are no stronger candidates).
Also, the beginning, middle and end of a dasa are strictly individual, based on natal chart. For me, most of my dasas’ endings have been good so far. However, my Moon’s dasa will be different… But so good to have a knowledgeable and thoughtful astrologer to come across my piece!
If you have astrology posts, submit them to my Carnival of Astrologers, and I will be happy to publish them.
By the way, I actually hope that I am wrong, and you are right.
I will be voting for Obama.
