I do not buy that “real conservatives” would vote in a Marxist to show the conservatives how they should be more conservative.

I see a whole lot of people ascribing rational thought to the electorate. Thats ridiculous. Most people only enjoy a rational thought every couple of months... Then forget what they were thinking about.

We have an uneducated population that does not know how to rationally approach a problem. We get an irrational government.

I agree with your statement. No way does 30% of registered republicans vote obama because McCain hung out with Rudy or grhamnesty, etc. I read an earlier post that said 30% repubs voted hobama. Either something was wrong with the counting process, including fraud or those people were dems registered as repubs.

There is more to the story then anger at McCain.

Me either. That’s hogwash and I hardly think you can compare McCain’s associates to those of Obama.

Many voted for Obama by NOT voting.

As the returns came in, it was clear voters in Repub strongholds stayed home.

McC underperformed with conservatives.

Obama overperformed with thousands of newly-registered voters.
