2. Inside those numbers, how many Republicans who didn't vote
their own primary vote in the Dem primary. The total numbers voting in the Dem primary makes one wonder...over 500,000? In a state were the Republicans out number registered Dems almost 3-1? You have to wonder.

6. I thought CNN had 3% of total was Republicans

They have a wide open race on their side too, damn near all who would vote in a primary did so last week.


Pretty good chance that any Republican who did vote in Dem primary did not pick the black guy. He could have won by an even larger margin.

7. 4% of the voters were Republicans. And they voted for Edwards. So stop with this.
See, I can post the same thing over and over too!

being accused of being a Racist and, truth be told, I do wonder how much of that we create by simply worrying about it. Shit! I don't know anymore!

It's just that we are headed into some HARD times and with a Republican at the helm that's going to make it sooo much more damaging in the long run.

We can't afford to loose.

10. Oh, I'm definitely Left and I believe in respecting people's issues, BUT
there ARE things we have to talk about civilly, somehow.

12. Well, those numbers are the South, so we can expect BO to do better
than that with Whites nationally. It'd just be so much easier with Edwards, that's all. He's got it all.
