Gallup: If McCain vs. Obama, 28% of Clinton Backers Go for McCain

From Gallup:

PRINCETON, NJ—A sizable proportion of Democrats would vote for John McCain next November if he is matched against the candidate they do not support for the Democratic nomination. This is particularly true for Hillary Clinton supporters, more than a quarter of whom currently say they would vote for McCain if Barack Obama is the Democratic nominee.

I would guess this is because Hillary is viewed as more moderate than Obama, so McCain is picking up the moderate Democrat vote.  Shades of McGovern or Mondale?

Sounds like the Democratic culture of “I hate my opponents” may be coming home to roost. 

Of course, I’m not quite seeing the results of this statistic when I see the head to head polls of either Dem. possibility vs. McCain.  This might be an interesting anomaly that doesn’t bear out when met with the acid test (electric kool-aid acid test of course) of the polls.

Democrats are racists?

What’s going to happen to US industry when the global warming extremists like John McCain double the price of electricity?  I would think all these factories will close and set up in countries where they aren’t scared of technology.
