“Fifty-five percent of [PA voters] saw Obama as the eventual winner of the nomination. Twenty-two percent of Clinton supporters felt Obama would eventually win. But more Obama supporters said they would be satisfied if Clinton won than vice versa. The animosity between the two camps led 16 percent of Obama supporters to say they would vote for Republican John McCain if Clinton were the nominee. Even more Clinton supporters, 26 percent, said they would defect.” [AP]

Instead of trying to get Hillary out of the race and allowing the media to blather on about stolen nominations, Howard Dean needs to get both candidates to publicly declare to their supporters that they will support whichever candidate gets the nomination and that they expect those supporters to get over their disappointment and also support the nominee. This needs to be forceful and unequivocal and needs to be done A S A P.

I’ve gotten to the point where I fuckin’ hate Obama. He lies and attacks Hillary all the time, but the media never calls him on it. I definitely will NOT vote for Obama if he gets the nom. I’ll vote for the socialist candidate instead.

I think Bitch Republic can account for all 26%.
