Democrat Defectors: We’ve Seen This Before, in Reverse

A note from Pollster.com’s Mark Blumenthal gives us some indication of those numbers I mentioned yesterdayl, about hom many Democrats would vote McCain, if their boy didn’t win. (Yes, I mean Hillary, too)

Some Context on the Democratic Defectors

• McQ has an examination of the money situation and Big Oil. Nice…. and worthy, but it doesn’t tell the rest of the taxation story. Note the comments. Sounds like I should be tapping that source from API that wrote me

• First, I’m pleased to announce, and recognize, that Right Wing News has honored us yet again, with an Honorable Mention, as a part of their Favorite Bloggers for 2008. I see Fellow Swamp Stomper Sister Toldjah is also on that

Lots of stuff going on over the weekend, not a bit of it earthshaking, or unexpected.

• Like McQ at Q&O, I find myself watching closely thetrainwreck that is NORK.  You had to know this kind of thing was coming,

• Billy, I have to tell you, I’m not convinced we were weakened to the point of not being able to deal with the Soviets out of hand. I think it far more likely we hadn’t the will, because after so

• Honorable Mention at OTB’s Caption Contest. You know, I wonder how many people didn’t get that one. I see Reader got one, too.
  
• Well, all the arguments about how Wrights views are not Obama’s, and that they’re not working

• Busy watching the Sabres beat up on Tampa Bay, so I didn’t get to this until late. PLayoff time, you know… and it looks to me like they’ll be there. IN this win, they entered the third with a 4

• McQ follows up on the Kos kids thing I wrote about over the weekend. Bruce, you’re yright of course about the comments there… but you’re missing the bigger deal; The moonbats feel strongest when they run together. The light of

• A first at the OTB Caption Contest. Like shooting chickens in a barrel.
• Boortz is suggesting “God Bless America” as a national anthem. Come on, Neal, let’s not mess with the anti-God freaks, again, huh?
• Oh, speaking of

•  The racist card and the sexist card. Is Geraldine Ferraro a racist? Eh, likely not. But it is of note that the charge is coming fast and furious against her from Obama’s supporters, isn’t it?I mean, look…You knew the race

OK, for all that we’ve been busy chatting about how Spitzer came over at the Mayflower, there was , in fact, other stuff in my head, and on the wires, besides Spitzer, today. Here’s

• Rumor control: McCain doesn’t have cancer. The Times, of course is making lots of noise about not being given McCain’s medical records, yet. The funny part of the story is, they’re still waiting for the health records of Bill Clinton,

• Well, over the weekend we got up to two feet of snow in places, mostly west of here. There’s a foot and a half in my front yard, and in my driveway.  We shovel it out, but since the yard

• Snowing in Rochester at the moment. Nothing newsworthy about that, particularly, except that the line of snow as this is being written runs from north and east of here to the south southwest, all the way down to New Orleans.
