Look at the exit polls for VA in 2000. Dems made up 41% of the voters and Reps 36 or 37%. Why Reps win in the south is because of a lot of crossover votes from Dems.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-39117462544565420852008-09-17T15:20:00.000-05:002008-09-17T15:20:00.000-05:00Hi Tom.My question is similar to "matt's" question...Hi Tom.<BR/><BR/>My question is similar to "matt's" question above: what do you think explains McCain's big lead among independent voters?<BR/><BR/>To show Obama up 2 points, I suppose that you are seeing that Democrats will vote in greater numbers, and with more loyalty, than Republicans. Is that a fair reading?<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your time.<BR/><BR/>Tom GordonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-2010005221167447382008-09-17T12:01:00.000-05:002008-09-17T12:01:00.000-05:00I'd be happy to talk to your professor about PPP a...I'd be happy to talk to your professor about PPP and its accuracy relative to other polling companies.

I find it hard to believe that realclearpolitics give you guys any credibility at all. Pretty much every poll they have shows it tied or McCain up 1 or 2 points. What does PPP show? Obama up 4 of course lol. I guess you didn't learn anything from your PA primary predictions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-91661039861056667082008-09-17T10:51:00.000-05:002008-09-17T10:51:00.000-05:00What do you think explains McCain's sizable lead w...What do you think explains McCain's sizable lead with VA independents?
