I can’t find the story right now, but I’ve seen reports that Obama is only getting 55% of Hillary supporters.

She had 18 million votes, so that leaves about 8 million up for McCain or Nader.

One thing I think some people miss is that these votes actually count double. What I mean is lets say you have 200 voters total.

105 to Democrat (52%)
95 to Republican (48%)

With the Pumas factored in:

97 Democrat (48.5%) (105-8)
103 Republican (51.5%)(95+8)

So Obama LOOSES 8 million, while McCain GAINS 8 million, or a 16 million vote swing.

Would love to see confirmation........call me skeptical.
Also that’s a good explanation of numbers.
