66% of Independents and 75% of Republicans voting in Dem Primary went for Obama

[TeamJordan23]

Just heard on MSNBC. These Exit Polls are showing that he clearly has more broad support and is more electable.

[boston bean]

1. OMG

:banghead:

[TwilightGardener]

2. Must be because they know he's the weaker candidate...

:eyes:

[harun]

3. I agree, they will spin this as Republicans trying to throw the election

to Obama out of fear of facing Hillary but that is flat out not true. A lot of people like Obama, Republican and Democrat. I think he could win 40 states in the GE.

[bellasgrams]

10. Of course it true and you can bet they're laughing their ----- off

[calico1]

32. He's going to win all 50!

In a landslide!!!


:crazy:

[madrchsod]

4. cool -----obama has a posse

i have to stay with mr natural!

[aquarius dawning]

9. Everyone could use a dose of Mr. Natural I think.

[JimGinPA]

22. Mr. Natural!!!!

I just had a flashback!!! Ah, the '60's....

:bounce:

[FrenchieCat]

5. Some will come and poop on your thread and state that

this was done on purpose, because it is Obama they want to run against McCain.


Funny thing is that it is these moderate are precisely the same ones who were waiting for Colin Powell and Condi Rice....so don't pay them no mind! :eyes:

[yeswecan08]

6. This is conclusive proof that Obama is the true uniter

[boston bean]

13. yeppers

not


:banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

[bullimiami]

7. i have to wonder about those open primaries and republicans crossing over.

I think a goodly percentage of them are trying to play spoiler.

[Mojambo]

12. Odd that they would pick the candidate that polls stronger against their likely nominee though. n/t

[bullimiami]

27. i wouldnt give them too much credit for their smarts.

[aquarius dawning]

16. Nooo, you think so?

Would Republicans really do something like that? :sarcasm:
Fuck I hate Republicans!

[Mass]

28. 7 % of Republicans voting. 59 % of Dems supporting Obama. This is a strawman argument.

[RiverStone]

8. This undeniable fact is why Obama is the most electable...

No intention to gloat here - but I live in red county here in Washington and I was amazed how many indies and disaffected pukes were going for Obama.

Hillary simply can't muster that kind of eclectic support.

His broad appeal simply can't be denied and it will (likely) lead him to the nomination.

[Cass]

11. I never liked that republicans or independents can select the dem

nominee. Never sat well with me. Should be open to registered democrats only.

[Mass]

15. He also won Democrats by 59 %

[Mass]

14. According to CNN exit polls, he wins across the board - women and men, college degree or high school

education.

[trashcanistanista]

17. Many of us have been saying this

for days based on our personal experiences in our precincts. It is not just anecdotal this time.

Damn straight he is electable! ;-)

[tritsofme]

18. The GOP race is over, I guess they had to muck up our shit.

Another reason why open primaries are problematic.

[Birthmark]

19. I think it's because Obama is universally admired.

Those Republicans voting for him *want* him to be the next President. Really.

[incapsulated]

21. lol

:D

[trashcanistanista]

23. Since I missed the sarcasm thingy,

if you speak the truth, I definitely agree with you. I noticed it in a closed primary in Cali. How? In a 2-1 historically red district our ballots ran 50-50 rethugs dems with either leading up or down throughout the day. Neighboring precincts reported the same thing. This is not a fluke.

[nonconformist]

20. That's not good news.

:banghead:

[JimGinPA]

24. Nearly 70% Oppose The War In Iraq

Do you think it's all Dems?

[Mass]

26. Why? He won the Democrats by 59 %. Clear victory.

[OzarkDem]

25. 75% of Republicans voting for a "liberal"?

with little experience in elected office?

Doesn't that make you just a little bit suspicious? Something strange is going on and its not democracy. It appears the GOP has revived an old way of stealing elections.

[trashcanistanista]

29. It's not 75% all over. Anyway, we just need about 20%

of them to crossover and help us sweep the general. Fuck the rest. Whatever it takes, I want a Dem in the Whitehouse.

[aquarius dawning]

30. Not just "a" liberal, "the" liberal as in the #1 biggest liberal in the senate.

This smells fucking fishy, you gotta admit.

[dana_b]

33. well...

he's sort of liberal, but the biggest liberal in the senate? What about this guy?
