Questions the pundits won't ask: Can McCain win PA - 27% of GOP |

Will Bunch: Questions the pundits won't askAn hour after hour of frequently repetitive punditry, not a single one raised this question: How can John McCain expect to win Pennsylvania in the fall when he was roundly rejected by a whopping 27 percent of his own Republicans in the state, including 11 percent who voted for a guy who dropped out weeks ago?... http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/attytood/Last night's biggest Loser?

1. If voters become Americans instead of Democrats vs Republicans during... |
|
the November GE then McCain would not have a hope in hell of wining as President in any State. (Not Likely to happen I will admit)

2. I worked at my local polls yesterday and overheard the |
|
Republican voters sentiments (we're very rural and most all the voters stayed and talked with us before and after voting).
The Republicans around here are not happy with McCain. I heard several say, "Let's go in and vote against him."
The final tally was: McCain - 37 Huckabee - 6 Paul - 6
and five Republicans did not vote for anyone for Pres.!

of Republicans who will not vote for McCain in the general, the same way some people are suggesting they won't vote for Obama if Hillary is out? I gotta a jerk-face on another board who keeps saying that McCain is going to romp to victory because every single Republican in the country will vote for him, as well as all the disgruntled Dems of whatever flavor. He's ticking me off...seriously delusional and insulting too!

I remember in 2000, when Al Gore won "only" 78% of the vote in the Arkansas primary, long after Bill Bradley dropped out. Yet the bobbleheads in the MSM lamented how "troubling" this was for Gore.

5. I wouldn't make so much of the low McCain #s - no motivation for turnout - protest votes did vote |

(someone posted another thread on GD about this)
