Re: Obama finally gets his bounce? (none / 0)

A bounce? Yes. But a sustainable one? That's the problem.

We like to forget that the GOP has been ready to fight Hillary Clinton for a long time. She could beat them in the end. But don't assume with all the quiet on the anti-Hillary front from the right that she wouldn't produce a backlash.

Re: Obama finally gets his bounce? (2.00 / 3)

This excuse is so old.

"A bounce? Yes. But a sustainable one? That's the problem."

No the problem is whether his current bounce proves sustainable. The idea that any Republicans are going to vote for Obama is laughable.

The thing is...there aren't many Republicans...and there are fewer and fewer all the time.


We care about politics because we know politics matters for people's lives and opportunities.

Republicans always vote for the Dem candidate. And Democrats always vote for the Rep candidate. How many will switch, and to which candidate is the important question.

Re: Obama finally gets his bounce? (2.00 / 1)

its worth looking at these polls which show it to be a close race, until they do a ticket matchup between McCain/Romney, Obama/Clinton, and each time, the margin for Obama with Hillary against McCain/romney is huge, compared to individual matchups. Of course the GOP has talking points. But its not right to assume they'd be very effective. Everyone in America knows the talking points against the Clintons and has for years now. But it tells you something when the ticket still polls extremely well vs. McCain/Romney.
