According to CNN exit polls, 9%.

I know that CNN and Rass are different polls, but 12% just does not pass the smell test. That is 1 out of 8 republicans. They would likely be RINOs and we all would have heard them by now. Both the MSM would be highlighting them and the chair’s campaign would have showcased them at rallies with “Republicans for Obama” signs, shirts, etc. THAT AIN’T HAPPENING.

I know that Scott is the most accurate pollster out there but I don’t see 12 % of republicans voting that way. The only “republican” endorsing the chair is Powell......and we all know that he is not a republican.

I can see Republicans voting 9% for Obama in 2008. Not every Republican is an informed voter and I could see some of them being taken in by the whole "hope and change" mantra that MSM shoved down our throats day and night. It also didn't help that McCain was our nominee.

This time around, even the densest of Republicans has to see that an Obama second term would be devastating. I see 97 or 98% of Republicans going for Romney this time around. The other 2 or 3% were either not Republicans to begin with or they need to be committed to the nearest mental institution.
