HEY PD!!!! Boston Herald: John McCain's Support Has Collapsed

[Cheebs]

From Political Wire & The Boston Herald:

Boston Herald's Brett Arends got an advance look at a new American Research Group poll from New Hampshire that shows Sen. John McCain’s popularity among New Hampshire’s independent voters "has collapsed.

"For seven years, conventional wisdom has said that the state’s pivotal independent voters would line up behind maverick Sen. John McCain, as they did so famously in the 2000 GOP primary. But new polling data, to be released later this week, will suggest that might no longer be the case."

Said ARG's Dick Bennett: "John McCain is tanking. That’s the big thing [we’re finding]. In New Hampshire a year ago he got 49 percent among independent voters. That number’s way down, to 29 percent now.”

Even more worrying for the McCain campaign is that ARG "is finding a similar trend in other states polled, including early primary battlegrounds like Iowa and Nevada."

WHATS UP PD?  Seems post-2000 McCain is scaring America.

Get used it because John McCain decided to fuck up any hope at the white house, romeny is un-electable and rudy can't win the primary.

POLLS MEAN LITTLE

[Flannel Boy]

John Mccain never seemed like an interesting candidate. The only maverick I care about is Dirk Nowitzki.

POLLS MEAN LITTLE

McCain is a right wing wacko, Bush league stuff and the public is coming around.

This man would enjoy your primary vote:

Edwards will probably commit suicide or get caught robbing a bank within the next 4 years. His political career is over, especially with Obama looking like the token VP of choice

Edwards has been rising in the polls.

The funny thing is Hillary is FAR from certain unlike McCain for the nomination. Obama is only ONE SINGLE PERCENT behind her nationally.

Also for Iowa only, the first and most important primary:

John Edwards leading his Democratic rivals in Iowa with 27% of the vote. Sen. Barack Obama is next with 17%, and Sen. Hillary Clinton ties former Iowa Gov. Tom Vilsack with 16%.

Damn I knew Edwards was ahead but I didn't think he was that far ahead. I'd expect him to do well in Iowa and similar states while Hillary and Obama will duke it out in places like Michigan

He is ahead in 3 out of the first 4 states(Iowa, SC, and Nevada). He is the underdog to watch out for.

Oh and Michigan is likely Hillary or Obama country, agreed. Regardless who wins overall I have a hunch Obama will take Michigan. He is a local boy being the only other front runner from the mid-west and he probably has the Detroit area locked.

Bill Clinton and Barack Obama both did rallies for Granholm last fall.

Which had the bigger turnout? Obama.

Assuming the negroes come out and vote. They put a stripper killing mayor back in office so I have little faith in them

Edwards is going to start off strong (he already has) and then fade away.

In the last election WA was Democrat in how it voted, as was the majority of the country.

Hillary would get the majority of WA no matter what if she is nominated. That is never in question

[MrAngryFace]

I was mostly pointing to the futility of the voting process in general. The fact that WA would vote for hillary just goes to show how LITTLE my vote counts.

In my own state my vote wouldnt count for shit.
In my own country my states vote wouldnt count for shit.

Why am I caring again?

[Cheebs]

cause its your patriotic duty to take part in the government process of your country or something like that

[MrAngryFace]

haha, maybe if the other people who voted didn't place votes like its American Idol.

While his status as chief maverick may be a little overrated (whose rep isn't?), McCain isn't a right-wing wacko; it's just that he chose a particularly poor time to do what may have had been necessary to win the primaries in 2k, but by doing so in 2k2-2k6 completely nullified any sort of credibility as a maverick he may have had in the eyes of the public and in the storylines of the media.
