From CNN exit polls: Clinton gets a 1.7% bump from Republicans who won't vote for her in the Fall.
5% of Democratic voters today will not support the same candidate in November.
Clinton takes these voters 2 to 1, giving her a 1.7% bump.

10. I kind of suspect that 5% is within the margin of "people who didn't understand the question,", but
there it is.

15. This is the Operation Chaos Measurement
About the only fucking reason for a Republican to turn Democrat and vote for someone they have no fucking intention on voting for in November is ...

Rush Lintball's Operation Chaos.

Welcome to the success of rethugs infiltrating our primary.

1.7% ... fuck me, nearly 2%.

I should be interesting to see the end number and know that we can take away nearly 2% of Hillary's win from her credit.

If she wins by 8% and everyone is saying ... 'that's a lot better than 6%' then we know ...

well shit, we don't know anything. Only that Lintball had an impact, but that his impact only gave Hillary 2% pts, not the election.

Now, if it's closer and within 2% pts and the long lines and voting machine "discrepancies" had an impact, then Lintball can glote and claim his efforts successfully extended the democratic primary and thus gave McSame a better chance in the GE.

We'll see, but I'm stunned Lintball had a nearly 2% impact on the vote.

Let's us know how much of that 300,000 new registered Democrats in PA were rethugs looking to fuck up our election.

23. Funny it's the Obama camp that courted operation chaos members
Edited on Wed Apr-23-08 08:18 AM by SIMPLYB1980
to try and win NV, and the Obama people had no problem with it then, and probably don't have a problem with it now.

27. Then that 1.7% is registered Dems who will vote for McCain
Either way, it doesn't do a lot for Hillary's argument that she's more able to carry the big states.
