Obama Leads by Only 7 in Arkansas's Democratic Primary
Weekly Standard ^ | 05/15/12 | Michael Warren

Posted on 05/15/2012 2:44:14 PM PDT by DFG

A new poll of Arkansas Democrats shows Barack Obama receiving support from only 45 percent of Democratic primary voters in Arkansas’s Fourth Congressional District, while 38 percent support his underfunded and relatively unknown primary challenger, Tennessee lawyer John Wolfe, Jr. Seventeen percent are undecided in the district poll.

In an interview with THE WEEKLY STANDARD, Wolfe said the poll results were “unbelievable” and said a defeat for Obama in the Arkansas primary would be “politically cataclysmic.”

“It says the momentum is good,” Wolfe said about the poll. “This is democracy in action."

Wolfe predicted that the voters would move his way in the final days before the May 22 primary, despite his shoestring campaign budget. “There’s not been a single TV ad. There’s not been a single radio ad,” he said.

The irony is that the Dem primary has more options than the GOP primary in Arkansas, now that Ron Paul has basically dropped out.

lol

African Americans are saying whites are working against Obama. If they (AAs) respond in kind and don’t vote for whites, the Rats could get creamed this fall.

I thought this was an interesting article, so I did some research. What is further fascinating is that a Wikipedia article has been created on this man which is not very positive or flattering.

IN ADDITION, there is a facebook page containing this message:

Description above from the Wikipedia article John Wolfe Jr., licensed under CC-BY-SA full list of contributors here. Community Pages are not affiliated with, or endorsed by, anyone associated with the topic.

http://www.facebook.com/pages/John-Wolfe-Jr/225902954190325?rf=307617965979614


When you click on the word “here” in the above message, this is the link you go to:

http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=John_Wolfe&action=history

And here is the heading at that link:

Versionsgeschichte von „John Wolfe“

German? Really?? Hum.....

Just thought I would share what I found.

Yes, according to this site:

"According to the website FairVote, the following states have open primaries: Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia..."
