Democratic Base Fissures
Although attention has been focused on McCain's problems with the GOP base, there are indications that some Democrats might defect if Obama is the party's nominee. Overall, 20% of white Democratic voters say they would vote for McCain if Obama is the Democratic nominee. That is twice the percentage of white Democrats who say they would support McCain in a Clinton-McCain matchup. Older Democrats (ages 65 and older), lower-income and less educated Democrats also would support McCain at higher levels if Obama rather than Clinton is the party's nominee.

They are fun to watch though :)
I can’t count the really diehard democrats who have told me this. If Hillary gets the nod, they will vote for her but if not they are voting McCain or not at all.
20% admit it.
One of the all time mysteries. LOL
You are spot on.
Not remotely close.
If you have a John McCain ping list could you add me?
Straight to God’s ears!
Yes but we are the best:)
Exactly. Nothing more than groupies.

“Because I GUARANTEE that McCain will pick activist Leftists also.”
And I GUARANTEE that some folks here are just a few degrees out of their minds! :)

“Generally white people would have big problems voting for a black for President. And, Obama’s wife is a deal-breaker.”
She needs as much “exposure” as possible. Just get her out there and get her talking. She’ll do the rest.
Watch her get put incommunicado very quickly as the campaign progresses!

If I were Obama, I would watch my back. Hillary won’t take to kindly to losing.
I heard it. He dropped that really quick and I wouldn’t have caught it if I wasn’t paying attention.
People need to stop being spooked by Obama, <<<
Errrr...Sorry!...u cant use the word spooked when talking about Obama...Its an off limit PC word just like >>..lynched....watermelon...nappy...niggardly and countless others...... if any freepers have more words....please send them to me...I’m doing a PC list in case he gets elected.
People need to stop being lawn jockeyed by Obama.
There. That should get me past the bean counters.
I can tell you right now, Hussein will not win Wisconsin. I’ll keep ya posted as the months pass.
Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton keep many of them on the liberal white plantation because their livelihoods depend on it.
