What can you say? I'd like to think that Pat is delusional about this as about everything else.

[leftofcool]

1. I have heards lots of women say this

Pat may not be all that wrong here

[TwilightGardener]

2. Pat has an agenda--and it isn't to help Democrats. 'Nuff said.

[CTD]

4. Hillary has an agenda -- and it isn't to help Democrats either. 'Nuff said.

Every day it becomes clearer that this has nothing to do with what's best for the Democratic party or what's best for the nation. It's all about preserving Hillary's last shot in 2012.

[caledesi]

15. I agree! NT

[DJ13]

3. He's hoping

Outside of fast fading hope that Clinton actually becomes the nominee this is the latest GOP spin to try and convince their idiotic GOP base they have a chance with McCain as a nominee.

5. Anyone, ANYONE who votes for mccain is a TRAITOR

I dont care if all your hair falls out if you do NOT vote for mccain...go bald PROUDLY!!!

[Freedom Train]

24. "Traitor"? That's Republi-talk. Why'd you wanna throw that around?

How about anyone who votes for McCain is not a Democrat?

[angstlessk]

25. no...a traitor, to everything America stands for..including

our founding fathers vision of who we are or would become!

[Cyrano]

6. Pat Buchanan also thinks the Nazis were great guys.

[TwilightGardener]

8. And that slavery was good for blacks. Apparently, it was on his website.

[newfie11]

7. Wrong here! I support Hillary but

I will vote for Obama and never consider mccain ever!!!

[meegbear]

9. And your point caller?

[Beregond2]

10. ?

Pat Buchanan thinks?

[Journeyman]

11. I'm sure some independents, or those influenced by racial considerations. . .

or voters who are swayed by countless reasons great and small, will definitely switch. We can only hope -- whoever our candidate may be -- that the other candidate will do everything they can to keep their supporters within the fold. But I don't see how anyone can expect everyone to remain true to the Democratic Party once their candidate leaves the race. It's my hope there'll be a larger number who switch from McCain, once our contest is settled and the stark contrasts become readily apparent.

12. There is some truth in that and lots of it has to do more with the anti-Hillary

vehemence among Obama supporters than Obama himself but he has not helped the situation either. Do you remember Obama saying that he was sure all Clinton supporters would vote for him if he is the nominee but he was not at all sure most of his supporters would vote for her? While mindful of his own constituents and their feelings, he seems to have utterly ignored Hillary's (at least a half or more of all Democrats), and their depth of support her. He was being both too cocky and, as we are finding out now, wrong -- and I am afraid that's my feeling now about his entire campaign -- cocky and wrong.

I will obviously vote for Obama if he is the nominee, but I will do it with much less enthusiasm than I envisioned when it all started both because of all the bad blood, and because by now I am quite certain that there is no way he can carry Michigan, Ohio, or Florida and win the WH. Unfortunately, for many in our party it has become more important that he is nominated and Hillary is defeated than who will be in the WH come January.

13. Please post link(s)!

I have not heard nor read of such comment - '...Obama saying that he was sure all Clinton supporters would vote for him if he is the nominee but he was not at all sure most of his supporters would vote for her...' - coming from Obama. I will like to see that myself.

19. Here you go

The lovey-doveyness of last night's debate may have come to an end. This morning, Obama said Clinton supporters would vote for him but the reverse would not be true. He took credit for helping to expand the playing field for Democrats by "attracting new voters and independent voters into the process in a way that Senator Clinton cannot do."

[Just-plain-Kathy]

14. McCain wants to bomb Iran. You would have to be an idiot to vote for him.

[susankh4]

16. Nothing at all

wrong with Pat's assessment. The Clinton/Obama ticket would guarantee us the White House. Either candidate without the other is a big maybe.

[Speciesamused]

17. Tell him he is not on the MCLAUGHLIN GROUP...

We did not ask for any predictions.
From his rude Rep. self. He always interrupts
my Elinor. He is not worthy.. :spank:

18. I Can Only Speak For Myself - No Pat, I Remember 1968 All Too Well nt

[populistdriven]

20. This Obama supporter would rather vote for a sewage-filled Calcutta pothole than John McCain...

Fuck!!!! The pothole gets my vote over McCain even if there are 3 bloated rats and a pound of cigarette butts emptied from a hookers ashtray bobbing around in it.

:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

[stratomagi]

21. Maybe just the Freepers that are supporting her...

If thats the case then its quite a lot. I may be disgusted enough by Hillary not to vote for her, but that doesn't mean I would in any way ever vote for John McCain.

[Jack Rabbit]

22. This is the same kind of logic that would have him slavery was good for Afro-Americans

I think it's called wishful thinking.

[Thepricebreaker]

23. Thinks? there is a poll that says 28% will..
