Yeah, pretty much, and I would even say that is the trend in all Dem vs. Rep elections. Joel Send a noteboard - 14/03/2012 04:59:30 PM
That is, Obama's camp doesn't have to worry about their former supporters going over to Romney, they have to worry about their former supporters voting at all.

That's... weird. And kind of depressing. Thanks for the feedback.

Conservatives do not think like liberals. They are not a different species, but their reference frame is different. Again, there is a reason Democrats are always concerned about illegally suppressed votes (i.e. low turnout) and Republicans about illegally inflated ones (i.e. high turnout.)

Back in HS government one of the things my textbook stated is that bad weather is bad for Democrats: It blunts Dem tournout more than Republican.

can *any* republican pose a challenge to obama in november? - 14/03/2012 04:06:59 AM 1177 Views
Yes, absolutely..... - 14/03/2012 04:12:30 AM 630 Views
"anybody but obama" is not a winning strategy - 14/03/2012 02:28:23 PM 608 Views
It can definitely work.....don't compare 2012 to 2004. - 14/03/2012 02:44:39 PM 477 Views
this is why it will be 2004 all over again if romney is nominated - 16/03/2012 02:22:26 PM 514 Views
It sure as Hell is, as long as the candidate is moderate - 14/03/2012 03:04:10 PM 722 Views
Did you vote for Obama in 2008? - 14/03/2012 03:47:55 PM 478 Views
Yes I did. If Romney is the candidate, I will vote Romney this year. *NM* - 14/03/2012 08:39:41 PM 328 Views
Second me on that. *NM* - 15/03/2012 09:25:39 PM 247 Views
Strongly qualifying your statement really weakens the "anyone". *NM* - 14/03/2012 10:14:45 PM 344 Views
The statement "anyone but Obama" can be a rallying cry, but only for the right candidates. - 16/03/2012 01:47:48 AM 631 Views
somehow i don't see romney having much credibility versus obama - 16/03/2012 02:16:32 PM 515 Views
Spoken like a true Obama partisan - 16/03/2012 04:18:21 PM 528 Views
It's actually not about credibility. - 16/03/2012 09:57:41 PM 587 Views

I love that "Gas Costs More!" is the current rallying cry. - 14/03/2012 10:13:04 PM 510 Views
Sure, if Israel hits Iran and Obama looks weak. - 14/03/2012 04:56:23 AM 630 Views
i think iran/israel is probably the biggest issue at the moment - 14/03/2012 02:25:29 PM 635 Views
I would put serious money on an Israeli attack before the election. - 14/03/2012 02:56:55 PM 630 Views

I know that I would consider voting for Romney - 14/03/2012 01:05:47 PM 605 Views
If you will pardon an impertinent question: Why? - 14/03/2012 03:26:01 PM 585 Views
The answer to the question is yes. *NM* - 14/03/2012 02:24:51 PM 411 Views
I was thinking no, and here's my rationale: - 14/03/2012 03:41:21 PM 545 Views
Romney doesn't have to "steal" people away..... - 14/03/2012 03:48:00 PM 545 Views
Isn't that a pretty tenuous strategy? - 14/03/2012 04:49:42 PM 578 Views
Much as it pains me to agree with trzaska, he is absolutely right in this case. - 14/03/2012 04:21:43 PM 755 Views

Interesting. So you guys are basically saying I'm right, but it might not matter - 14/03/2012 04:53:48 PM 616 Views
Yeah, pretty much, and I would even say that is the trend in all Dem vs. Rep elections. - 14/03/2012 04:59:30 PM 646 Views
