81 percent of Clinton supporters say they will back ObamaI hope this will end the ludicrous, time-wasting fantasy that any Republican could ever gain Hillary's votes. What a non-story, aside from a few websites which probably signify a few hundred disgruntled Dems who were only playing coy to the bitter end.

Consider the source. Newsday is a leftist rag.

And that poll will start nose-diving, starting today, as the last of the bounce leaves in favor of Palin’s addition to the ticket.

The fact that 100 percent won’t vote for him shows that 20 percent of her 50% will stay on the sidelines or vote for someone such as McCain.
However, McCain’s idiotic play for liberals or “moderates” through his whole campaign was stupid.

Call me crazy, but I’m going to take a serious guess that McCain also makes inroads with Clinton voters!

who cares about these polls. Ask Gov. Bradley ( former mayor of LA) , Doug Wilder Va.
Bradley was ahead in the polls but people lied and Pete Wison won.
Gov. Wilder up by 20 points in Va. won by 1 point.

I hope this will end the ludicrous, time-wasting fantasy that any Republican could ever gain Hillary's votes. What a non-story, aside from a few websites which probably signify a few hundred disgruntled Dems who were only playing coy to the bitter end. Do the math. 19% of 18 million votes is 3.4 million votes. That's enough to matter by any standard, whether they all stay home or half go for McCain and half stay home. Obama intentionally snubbed Hillary, and her most loyal fans are not going to forgive quickly. I'd call that the second biggest story of the election, behind Sarah Palin. I am more than happy to have as many as possible of those 3.4 million non-Obama votes go to McCain/Palin.

81 percent of Clinton supporters 81 percent of Clinton supporters who could be found at home, sitting by their telephones, over Labor Day weekend.

We need to get only 5% of them to have a serious impact on the election. My thought also -- we don't need that much -- except that I think Palin will get about 10% of the Clinton voters. With the margin being at most a few percent nationally over the past couple election cycles, that could make all the difference.
Remember -- since the end of the Civil War, all of three (3) Democrats have won the White House with a a simple majority of the popular vote -- FDR, LBJ and Carter. Unlikely Obama will be #4, and it's unlikely that Barr or Nader will win more than 1/2 percent -- but anything is possible.

There hasn't been a pole bounce, and there won't be until the Barracuda starts to bite. We had one good day and at the end Friday we were dead even with The One. Since then all the Republicans have done is react to the Obama teams scandal of the day. Nobody has laid a glove on Obama in four days and what do you know he is up 8 points in the poles. We need to hit them so hard that they stop talking about Bristol's fiancee and start talking about Obama'a terrorist friends, and Biden't son who is about to be indited for bank fraud.

Oh, yes.
Not a single link to the poll in the story I could find, nor the dates, methodology, number of people sampled, or composition of the sample.
Simply propaganda.
Cheers!
