American Small Business League and Barack Obama

McCain Wants Pennsylvania Democrats to Vote for Clinton, Says American Small Business League

PETALUMA, CA--(Marketwire - March 10, 2008) - The following is a statement by the American Small Business League:

For several weeks now, republican strategists on CNN have openly admitted that they would rather see John McCain run against Hilary Clinton than Barack Obama. Before Tuesday's primaries in Texas, Ohio, Rhode Island and Vermont, ultra-conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh was even urging republicans in those states to vote for Sen. Clinton in the Democratic primaries.

Why? The answer is quite simple.

Hillary Clinton would lose against McCain, but Obama would win.

The most recent polls by Time and CNN agree. If the election were held today, Senator Clinton would lose against McCain.

The ASBL is confident in Sen. Obama's leadership and commitment to American-owned small business. With that in mind, the ASBL believes that Sen. Obama is the best candidate for small businesses across the nation.

Pennsylvania democrats that favor Sen. Clinton must be realistic and realize that a vote for Sen. Clinton would be more likely to elect John McCain as president than it would be to elect Sen. Clinton.

In presidential elections where margins of victory are often counted in tenths of a percent, seven points is a sure thing. If Pennsylvania Democrats want to put a Democrat in the White House, the best vote would be for Sen. Barack Obama.

Polls tell us what? they aren't scientific and there are a great deal of variables not taken into consideration.
Things such as core Dems that would rather vote republican than inexperienced. All voters are not set in their party affiliations, and what I'm hearing more than ever is that a large
group of voters had in fact rather vote for McCain than Obama. The belief is that we need for more years of Senate experience to learn more about him and his voting record.
A state vote really doesn't tell us enough. Especially when so many of those were present. He likes to sit back and see what others will do before he makes decisions.
Case in point, answers such as- well I agree with Senator Clinton I would just like to add. It's easy to add to a good answer. I haven't seen too many answers of his
that were forward thinking. Oh yeah, Change he uses that word well. You hear it 1000 times a day. But tell me how. Haven't hear it yet. It's hard to change something you don't understand.
You have to understand the inner workings of washington to change them. He will be rounded up and put out to pasture his first 6 months as President.

and agree with them, especially their endorsement of Obama...

It's very simple.

You don't. That's fine.

Thanks for being civil.
