They said they would vote for McCain?. (none / 0) (#27)

...yikes I thought they just said that they wouldn't vote for the other candidate and I assumed that a large number of them would simply not vote.

I Don't Believe It (none / 0) (#44)

Maria,
Like I said I don't believe the poll.  As far as the NPR broadcast goes, they never actually interviewed anyone who said he or she would vote for McCain if either Obama or Clinton lost.  The closest they come was to quote a Clinton supporter who said that she knew people who said that.  

I mean after 8 years of Bush I find it hard to believe that there are 20 to 30 percent of Democrats who would do that.

The problem is not dems voting McCain (none / 0) (#49)

the prob is dems staying home.

It's the same thing that handed Bush the presidency and the same thing that lost it for Kerry.  If just ten percent more had turned out, then the results would have been different.  We have got to have someone who energizes the base.

You know, like Clinton.
