He has the potential to win over some RINOs, but not Republicans as I understand the definition.

What a collection of nitwits, from the author right on down to the interviewees.

Here's proof:
Obama is the only Democrat he would vote for, Campbell adds. His second choice is John McCain.
To: Ronin
And those that are on his side are already RINOs

There is no such thing. If they are for Obama or Hillary, they are not conservatives. They might CALL themselves republicans, but that would put them directly in the RINO category. Or, they are simply Marxist Dimocrats trying to tell us they are republicans. Any, ANY, ANY person that calls him or herself a conservative, that votes for Hillary or McCain or Miff, ARE NOT CONSERVATIVES.

“Lisa Kinzer, 30, is another rock-ribbed Republican who’s gone Obama.”
Sure.

I think I called them by the correct name, up in post 3.
To: Kaslin
Obamasama sounds more and more like Eisenhower. He has nearly the same vocal qualities to start with and it sounds like he's receiving voice lessons to improve on it.
This is exceptionally dangerous for the Hildabeast since Ike attracted millions of Democrats with little more than the soothing sound of his voice.
Remember, he was the Supreme Allied Commander.
Ike also attracted millions of Republicans.

Actually, you can’t become a RINO unless you are elected. This guy isn’t elected. That means he has to be nothing more than a countryclubber, and cannot, definitionally speaking, be part of the party base.

No, you can be a RINO and not be elected. There are plenty of RINOs running around, even here on FR, and they are not elected.

I can see a Republican voting for Obama, but only in an effort to thwart Hillary.
Otherwise, said voter is hardly a Republican. (On the other hand, many "Republicans" are voting for McCain, so it's hard to say what Republican means any more.)

says Brian F. Schaffner, an assistant professor of political science at American University in Washington, D.C. "Obama definitely has the potential to win over some Republicans in the same way that Reagan won over some Democrats, says Brian F. Schaffner, an assistant professor of political science at American University in Washington, D.C. I know Salena ias a Freeper, but her go-to guys are despicable leftists, at least in the last two cases I've checked. Schaffner's political contribution history on Newsmeat is short and exclusive : America Coming Together , about which Wikipedia says:
America Coming Together (ACT) was a liberal, political action, 527 group dedicated to get-out-the-vote activities. ACT did not specifically endorse any political party, but mostly worked on behalf of Democratic candidates. They were the largest 527 group in 2004 and were planning on being involved in races in the future. They were primarily funded by Peter Lewis, George Soros, and labor unions, especially the Service Employees International Union, and led by Steve Rosenthal, who is the former political director for the AFL-CIO.
so basically, what you have here is the Soros shaping of public opinion

How ANYONE can vote for this Muzzie I will never understand. I know a retired West Point graduate/career Army guy who is over the moon over him. He and his wife think he is the greatest thing since store bought bread and they are Christians!

"Barack Obama speaks in a clear style..."
O'Barnum's speaking style, which is to accent the end of each phrase is an old carny barker's trick.

I can see a Republican voting for Obama, but only in an effort to thwart Hillary. Yup, crossing over on Tuesday to stop Billary's assault on the Constitution. However, I must admit that part of my cross over decision was impacted by the fact I don't like any of the GOP candidates.
To: Kaslin
A few Republicans will be wooed by Obamscam but not many.
To: All
This is a joke, right? Reagan declared that the government was the problem...and most all of us have jumped that ship and are up to our necks in the water. We’d like to think that we hear Reagan when politicians speak — a Reagan throwing us a life preserver. But no politician in this era has ever been on the same ship as Reagan was so the life preservers that are thrown to us today are made entirely out of lead.
