Political Calculus: Solve for X and Y (Generations); McCain Makes a Walk-in Tub for Dentured Dems
Edited on Sat Feb-02-08 10:17 AM by CorpGovActivist
If you've got the tap wide open on your bathtub, but you've only got the drain open a little bit, the tub will overflow with water, right?

Same principle applies: where the floodgates of younger voters are wide open, a small drain of disaffected dentured Democrats won't stop the ballot box from overflowing with votes.

McCain manufactures a walk-in tub for those afraid to slip and fall by taking a chance on hope.

4. No, I'm saying only some of them will defect down the drain.
Others will see hope.

The ones who defect can step conveniently into McCain's Manufactured MouseTub (TM).
