Democratic Crossover: McCain Democrats

While many cite McCain's massive appeal to independents, for his stance on Iraq, immigration, global warming and so on, is it possible that McCain will also appeal to Democratic voters?

Will we see McCain Democrats in the fashion of Reagan's run for Presidency?

According to latest FOX News polls, (as cited by Rove) McCain will pick up an astonishing 18% of Democrats...if Obama is nominated, whereas only 10% of Republicans will vote for Obama in the general election. Frankly this is quite amazing to me, and yet I can't find it anywhere else.

Is it possible that McCain could not only win the base, the center, but the left as well?

This is Karl Rove's interview on the O'Reilly Factor,

"No, I disagree. Look, you've got to take the difference between sort of what's going on on the surface and what's going on underneath the surface. You take a look at the last FOX poll when they did the head-to-head matchups between McCain and Obama, I've got them right here.

Eighty percent of the Republicans say they're for McCain against Obama. Ten percent of Republicans say they're for Obama versus McCain. Among Democrats, McCain takes 18 percent of the Democrats, almost twice the percentage that Obama takes among Republicans. And Obama is 74 percent of Democrats as opposed to the 80 percent of Republicans for McCain. So McCain is doing better consolidating his base than is the Democrats. Similar numbers for...Hillary Clinton."--Karl Rove

I've also noticed that many liberals and Democrats are trying their best to stop the siphoning of votes to McCain. Dean just came out with his ridiculous fundraising appeal, trying to paint McCain as a third term for Bush. Arrianna Huffington of the Huff Post is trying to say that McCain is a "Bushite" and and "Bush conservative" for allowing political genius Karl Rove to work for him.

Yeah and Clinton was secretly a conservative for bringing on Dick Morris.

The Myspace for "Democrats for McCain."

Has no one heard that Barack Obama is linked via his minister to Louis Farrahkan! in case you are unaware of this, Farrahkan is a man who's views and prejudices are famous. Farrakhan freely quotes anti-Jewish accusations from a book by conspiracy theorist Gary Allen. Why is this not being covered in the media. This information came from listening to the National Public Radio. I am a Democrat that will vote for McCain if Obama wins the nomination.
