Because Bush is a controversial President. People are going to turn out to vote against him, and his hardcore supporters would go out and vote for him.



The Democrats are turning out in large numbers because they still have a conest. If there was a primary here in Md. tomorrow, I wouldn't vote.

I know you like the Obamaide flavor of Kool-aid, but now you're starting to sound like a leftist kook.

Apparently, Obama can say whatever he wants to, but if McCain responds it's an attack.

That's why it's good to have the Hannity's, Rush's, Mark Levin's. Or else the Dems would totally get away with this crap a lot more.

Image the carpel tunnel I'll save if you just tell me what to think and I don't wonder why.

Isn't that the truth!!

I think that there is a core group of voters who always turn out to vote in the primary, and that number doesn't vary more than +/-10% each year. The Dem numbers are up this year because of all the hoopla and I think there's a good chance these folks will vote in the General. I don't see any driving reasons for Republicans to turn out in the General.
