Gallup poll; nearly 30% of Clinton supporters support Mc.Cain over Obama

A new Gallup poll came out this morning showing that if Hillary Clinton does not get the nomination for the Democratic party, nearly 30% of them, (28%) say they will vote for John Mc.Cain this November. The poll also suggests that only 60% of Clinton supporters will vote for Obama this fall.

On the other hand, 19% of Obama supporters say that if Clinton is the nominee, they will vote for Mc.Cain in the fall. also 72% of Obama supporters will vote for Clinton this November.

What this tells me that there are a lot more Clinton supporters that will ultimately be pissed off enough to vote Mc.Cain if Obama gets the nomination. Now I know a good portion of these people will come back to the Democrats this November, but enough of them could tip the balance over to Mc.Cain.

Now, I have no wish to see Mc.Cain as president, but I also have no wish to see Obama as president either. But just think, if only half of those Clinton supporters carry through with their threat to vote for Mc.Cain, combined with other factors like Nader, and people so disgusted with politics, just staying home, and not voting Obama, you could very easily see John Mc.Geezer as president.
