89. That's what they tell you over at MSM
The republican lites who are ashamed of themselves for voting for the chimp and are seeking absolution by siding with Obama will be quickly herded back into the GOP fold once the media machine gets really going. We only have a taste of it now.


As far as "people" voting against Hillary, that is mostly just here in blog land. The real life Obama supporters I meet back him because they like his message and think he would do a good job. They aren't filled with hate and bloated with MSM feedings. I was at the table at our Texas precinct caucus where we were counting the votes. As the evening wore on and the vote kept at a 50/50 split the group around the counting table seemed happy with this. We all voiced the concept that we would be happy with either candidate and that the Democratic party was lucky indeed. Except for one surly member who couldn't contain herself. She puffed up and hissed "Not me. I just hate that Hillary." She got a few seconds of silence and then the whole group turned away from her and back to what we were doing. Later at the end of the caucus, after we had broken into the two groups of county delegates, and I was selected as the Hillary chair, three of the members of the Obama delegates, including the chair, made a point of apologizing to me and our group for the woman's nasty behavior.
