" Its Not a Question of IF, its only a question of
HOW MANY Democrats will cross party lines or Stay at home on election day. Its not a question of how many whites & Latino democrats would not support the nominee, its only a question of by how much. It would be similar to the Reagan democrats two decades ago. The only difference today is the large Latino votes & Senior citizen voters are part of the 2008 block"
This is the best quote I've seen jointly given by democrat Henry Cisneros & GOP operative Al Castellanos on this issue.
All pollster agree on the findings. Polls in state after state show anwyhere from 25% to as high as almost 50% in states like Kentucky & West Virginia.
Democrats who would either vote for McCain in November or stay at home on election day.
Obama operatives can only work to try & minimize the percentages.
But even if numbers go at the low end of 25%, it would still be result in a devastating defeat for Obama in November.
Obama cannot afford to get Only 30%-35% of white voters. Obama cannot afford to get Only 55% of Latino voters.
Despite the Worst Republican Branding since Watergate, combined with a powerful media bias, we have a democratic nominee who would at best, give millions of democrats so much uncertainty until election night.
While we will increase our congressional house seats in November due in large part to the serious brand damage of the GOP, we will need lots of sleeping pills, lots of luck, and lots of divine intervention if we are too see a President Obama.
Its Kerry all over again. Obama has Absolutely No Room for error in the electoral map in November. There is No Wiggle room. Nothing.
We may all witness a relatively close popular vote race but a landslide electoral map defeat in November.
Not only possible, but extremely possible.
What a country. Only in america can you pick a weaker candidate for President.
