    I see a lot of Obama supporters, but hardly any Hillary ones, how is she doing so well in the primaries then?

    I would immediatly paint the WhiteHouse Rocket red, and all national business would cease when the Rockets were playing.

    As for reality.....I just don't understand how Clinton is winning some of these elections especially in Texas where I meet a ton of Obama people but not one single Hillary one.

    Is there any truth to the rumor that republicans are actually turning out in numbers to vote in the democratic primary for Clinton?

    It sure seems like that may be the case.

    No. 53 percent of Texas Republicans voted for Obama.

    As for your other question, think of the sample size and how incredibly small this place is. In addition, this message board, and in particular this forum, is 90-95 percent male. A majority are from larger cities. A whole lot are college kids or younger. Many are also upper class. The constant base of Hillary's support -- women, rural Dems, older and working class -- aren't represented proportionately here at all. So don't read too much into it.

    Obama-

    I don't like Clinton because the thought of two families being in control of our country for almost a quarter of a century makes me sick. 20 years is ENOUGH.

    I have lost any respect for McCain that I used to have. From bowing down to Fallwell with his Liberty commencement to making W's playbook his own saying he will stay the course with Iraq, he has shown that his ideals are malleable to the highest bidder.

    McCain.

    I can't stand Clinton, and Obama would be Jimmy Carter V.2 based on his politics.

    Net users are more likely to love Ron Paul or Obama.

    Exactly. I think there are a lot of people out there who want to prove they are good little humans and vote for Obama so everybody knows that they aren't racist. Ridiculous.

    Using that logic, there appears to be more than a few folks still trying to please Daddy.

    i don't really like any of them, but McCain is clearly the best on that list. I don't understand why anyone would want to vote for Obama. He makes Kerry look almost middle of the road.

    So long as you're just fine with the POTUS knowing UBL's location and doing SQUAT, while having an affair on your tax dime.
