Republicans for Obama
I heard there will be a different spin on the Bradley effect this election......people who are saying they will vote for McCain, but will vote for Obama in the voting booth.

I think a lot of Republicans are terrified of what would happen if Palin had to step into the job of president. And I think a lot of them are afraid of McCain's war mongering attitude and poor judgement on the economy.

Those who cross their political party's lines to vote for the best candidate, are truly pro America. Good for them. They deserve a lot of respect for doing what is right for us all.

1. The technical term is "Yeldarb Effect."
And I think it exists.

2. Could be they just want to vote for the winner.
And we know who that is.

3. I call that The Republican Desertion Effect.
I do think a lot of folks who are indulging with their friends in the culture war that hate talk radio promotes so relentlessly but know the Republicans have really screwed things up

will be slinking into the booth to vote for Obama

and then back to the bar to trash the damn liberals.
