Keep in mind that die-hard Democrats and the far left make up 30%-35%, or maybe a little more, of the electorate. And that far-left contingent, along with the Black population, aren’t that reliable to show up at the polls. So when you see a 45% - 50% figure for Obama, that means a relatively small percent of Independents are still on board. And, frankly, I suspect the figures are somewhat worse for him than these show. But that’s what this thread is about, isn’t it.
