Right-hand side of the page, down a bit.

[bdamomma]

2. let's DU this poll.

[Zueda]

3. ummm. You will probably get a 50-50 split to that from DU members

[pbca]

I don't think anywhere near half of DU are Hillary supporters

[Donnachaidh]

8. do you really think anyone who is not for Obama is automatically a Hillary supporter?

:eyes:

[pbca]

11. No, about 4% are something else

13. really, all 117,000 members voted in that poll?

And only 4 percent are for someone else?

I'll hazard a guess to say it's quite a LARGER number than that poll says. :rofl:

14. Given your math skills you must be a Hillary supporter

725 is a HUGE sample for 115,000 people - there are frequently only 1000 polled in a nationwide poll.

Back to school with you :think:

4. wrong forum?

[LuckyTheDog]

17. This is not about the primary

It's about Obama's speech.

[rocktivity]

5. Of course it WILL be

I think the REAL question is, SHOULD IT be?

:headbang:

6. It's a vague question - because everyone should agree "yes"

Obama haters would say yes because they want it to be an issue for him.
Hillary supporters think it will be an issue - and hope that it does because it benefits her.
Obama supporters should hope that his speech turned it into an issue that will help him.

..... and yes, in one way or the other it will be an issue.
It will either cost him the election or create a broad coalition.

7. 38.67% no

Our Democratic candidate will continue to be attacked right up until the General Election...I refuse to be part of any attack. Too often, I have felt and thought much the same as Obama's pastor...

[tachyon]

9. Is there some reason this is in GD instead of GD-P where it BELONGS?

:eyes:

[LuckyTheDog]

10. Please cross-post it there

I reached my thread limit!

[stillcool]

12. It will be as long as there...

are Pat Buchanan's out there. Or as long as "Black" is the deciding issue.

[Iwillnevergiveup]

15. I voted "NO"

twice. Time waster.

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

16. What answer are you supposed to give?

Let's face it, it WILL be a lingering issue because the Republicans and the right wing media will make it one, just as they will for anything Hillary did in the past. Let's not be naive and try to whistle past the graveyard.
