20% D’s here going for McCain is no stretch.

True. But 95% of Repubs going for McCain is.

Survey USA poll out today has the following: 73% of GOPers for McCain, 75% of Dems for Obama, with independents breaking 54-33% for Obama.

I think we R’s ALWAYS have a healthy percentage of malcontents who protest the election. I don’t know if it’s any larger or smaller this election.

If Obama is getting 75% of Dems, then he's in trouble. He can't win with that even with two thirds of Independents breaking for him. That is if the Survey USA figures are really accurate.
