A poll was conducted back In June 2008, and it found that the number of Hillary supporters that were going to vote for Obama was 58%, with 28% going to vote for McCain. The rest were undecided.
In September, another poll was conducted, and it found that things were unchanged for Obama. This poll found that the percentages were still 58% going to vote for Obama and 28% going to vote for for McCain, with the remainder still undecided.
If the remainder ends up splitting evenly, that will give McCain 35% of Hillary supporters that will vote for him and 65% for Obama.
18 million people voted for Hillary in the Democratic primaries. 35% of those 18 million voting for McCain on Nov. 4th, 2008, will translate into about 6.4 million votes for McCain - votes that Obama will not get - and would have gotten had he chosen Hillary as his veep.
This may account for why the MSM pollsters have skewed their polls and rampantly oversampled Dems, and undersampled Repubs - along with tainting their polls with extra blacks and college students being polled.
6 million plus axtra voters for McCain...
Wow.
Since early voting numbers show that few college students are turning out to vote early for Obama, even though he and his campaign have been pleading with them to do so, and with some polls showing that Obama's turnout of black voters won't be much better than John Kerry's were, the Obama campaign is worried.
This election is far from over. The polls are much, much closer than many realize.
Great news! Thanks for posting. Are you in a battleground state?
(Looking up for lightning.)
It is good to have you here.
In June following a hectic year at college, a certain student I know decided to get caught up on politics. About 20 minutes into reading about 0bama’s policies, he announced it was Marxism and moved on without looking back.
:shrug:
Those pics of Sarah being hung in effigy (Haw, haw, just a good ol’ Halloween gag) will fire a lot of them up. I predict it’ll get the McCain ticket even more women votes. They’re getting tired of the obvious misogyny.

Welcome! We are all very glad to have you and the PUMA’s on our side this time around!
Thanks for sharing ! Best wishes !
Thank you for posting, and welcome to Free Republic!
I’ve been reading several PUMA blogs and forums since the end of the primaries, and am so glad to have y’all on our side this time. I’ve found that there are some amazing Hillary supporters!
Like you, I don’t trust Obama one bit, and think he will forever change this country for the worse if he’s elected. However, with your help, and the grace of God, he will be back in the Senate and, hopefully, tainted for life.
Excellent posting, and I concur with you.
Lady de Rothschild said there will be between 5 and 7 million Democrats voting for McCain.
I think she’s in a position to know. ;o)
I meant to include you in my ping. ;o)
McCain voters, you’re in good company! /s
God bless you.
