I found this poll interesting / crossover voting |
|
results from a Gallup poll reported on CNN:
According to the just-released poll, 28 percent of Clinton's supporters would back McCain should the New York senator lose her quest for the Democratic nomination. That compares to the 19 percent of Obama supporters who say they will favor McCain should Clinton be the party’s nominee.
Neither of these numbers are good...but REALLY, would over a quarter of Clinton supporters seriously vote for McCain? But, wait--we Obama supporters have been called the "cult" members/kool aid drinkers, it would seem a cult would be more likely to take their toys and go home if our candidate loses, right? This should concern us all....

1. Does this count the voters who vote for her and then will vote against her in November? |

either like war or are really, really stubborn... I have two little boys who will be 17 and 19 at the end of the next two presidential terms. I am SO NOT voting McCain––regardless of what happens!

7. I have always believed... |

...these are the Reagan Democrats who would never have voted for Obama in the first place - NEVER - and were looking for the 1st opportunity to say so. Loudly and proudly.
