High Democratic voter turnout
Posted by DavidThomas

Should we be concerned that Democrats are showing more enthusiasm in these primaries? Was it like this in 2000 and 2004?

November won’t be close. McCain won’t satisfy the repub base, meaning no turnout in November. Hillary wins on a landslide and has her ‘mandate’ to ram chairman Mao down our throats.

Clinton/Obama will be lucky to win more than a handful of states.

Theirs will be without question the most insanely Marxist ticket in the history of the Republic.

President Hillary is not going to happen.

If 400,000 in Missouri were ready to vote for Hillary and only 200,000 for McCain, do you see any way that changes in November?

Taking into consideration all the hatred of Bush, I believe this is a great motivating factor in their turnout. They are so close now they can taste it.

Go look in the archives.. 2004 was filled with stories about Dim turnout and enthusiasm, how now incumbent trailing in January ever won, blah blah.

Can't go by that.

Lots of rats came out to vote because there was a real race between Obama and Clinton.

Come November the same people that voted in 2004 and supported the GOP will be there again with a lot more urgency:

One interesting fact about Missouri is its status as a bellwether of national politics.

Missouri has a longer stretch of supporting the winning presidential candidate than any other state, having voted with the nation in every election since 1904 with the exception of Adlai Stevenson in 1956.

In 2004, George W. Bush won the state's 11 electoral votes by a margin of 7 percentage points with 53.3 percent of the vote.

Missouri has a very notable urban-rural split, as Democrat John Kerry only won three of the state's 115 counties: St. Louis County, Ste. Genevieve, and Jackson County (which contains most of Kansas City).-wiki

Democrats were enthusiastic about crossing over in the primaries in 2000 to vote for McCain as well.

They can’t be counted on crossing the aisle in the general election, however.

They want to win by any means necessary.

Dems always “poll” well early, when the MSM can more easily manipulate the polls.

Republicans inevitably improve in the polls as the season grinds on.

Stick to the issues - do not atttack candidates personally. If we stick to the issues, Conservatism eventually wins.

I just can't see it. The turnout for the rats is staggering. McCain just simply won't turn out the vote. I see a 45% to 30% win for the rat in November.

OK it’s a bet. The Dems are going to win by the largest landslide in history. On the bright side I have better than 4 years until I have to worry about who gets my vote for President.

You have to remember it is now marxism that is desired by the ignorant masses. We have been convinced that things are so bad off caused by evil capitalism and the rich republicans(not the Kennedys of course) that the people are begging for “change”. Just what do you think obama and hillary mean by change? They are more well funded than us and have global support. Welcome to the new global tyranny. I wish I could say that an armed revolution in the spirit of the American Revolution could do the trick but reality is that we wouldn't even come close to people understanding it let alone participating in it.

Well the fact of the matter is that many Republicans stayed home tonight (although I did get out there in the pouring rain to cast my vote for Mitt Romney in Massachusetts).

Let's face it, the Obama/Clinton race is far more exciting than the Huckabee/McPain/Romney tilt. In fact, I would not be surprised if many Republican leaning Independents crossed over to cast a vote against the Clintons (my wife was one of them).

However, I think that Americans will turn out in force in November to vote against either Obama or the Clintons (I'm thinking it will be Obama). I'm just hoping it's not McPain that is the GOP nominee.

I, for one, have not lost hope that McPain will not be our nominee.

A. They came so close in ‘00 they almost got away with grand larceny in full view of the country;
B. Came close again in ‘04, but Ohio was more transparent than FLA;
C. They been out of power for eight years and left in shame then;

What would be a surprise would be if they WEREN’T energized on a double dose of black beauties.

9. O.K.. What I'm getting from this:
1) Teh 'lics are holding back so they can trick us with a tsunami of voters next November.
2) We're communists.
3) They feel completely whipped.
4) The Republics have done their best to destroy the U.S. and the Constitution, but they deserve another chance. They know better than anyone else how this country should be run.
5) Most of the people posting on that site didn't pay attention in English after the 2nd grade. The rest were home-schooled and were too busy with their Bible picture and coloring books to bother.

19. FR is a lot funnier than DU.
I can rarely make it through an FR thread (like this one) without gales of laughter. Some of their comments are just so crazy that you have to laugh.

My favorites are the ones about the Evil Witch (you know, Hitlery) and how she is a socialist, a communist, and Chairman Mao reborn (and a Nazi too!). These are especially funny in the light of the anti-Hillary threads here on DU in which she is portrayed as a right-wing extremist no different from bush.

It's sad that America is going insane, but it sure is entertaining to watch the process unfold!

4. I never thought they would work it out
The 'Cons use every electoral method except actually getting more votes than their opponents.
They can't imagine what it must be like to win without cheating.
The site which doesn't rate being named is pretty primitive, I must say.
It looks like a BBS I used to access through my C-64 in the late '80s.
Can't those poor slobs get an H-1-B in there to help them?
As Jed Clampett might say: pity-full.

a bipolarizing figure. LOL

Of course, I went to a local newspaper blog one day and found a guy talking about immigration. He kept mentioning the migrane workers. That is his spelling, not mine.

That was an attempt at Freeper humor. Hillary is "bipolarizing," because, you see, Hillary is bipolar, and she makes other people bipolar? 'Cause, like, she's crazy, and she doesn't deserve to be president? Freeper joke, get it?

"Liberalism: Highway to Hell"

And lest we forget that all time classic, "Peace is not an option"

Christ must be beaming with delight over how some of his "followers" nailed that one...
