I keep hoping it's just bored journalists and old polls, but alas
The idea that there are still people, deomcratic primary voters, holding out against Obama, potentially voting for McCain because they support Hillary makes no sense to me.
It's like you started looking to buy a new car, and you were thinking Hybrid. You decided you wanted the Prius, but only the Fit was in stock near you, so what do you do? Fuck it, you're gettin' an Escalade. That'll show them.
This appears to me to be the downside of the notion that it's a Civic Duty to vote no matter what. I don't understand what would put a person in the Hillary > McCain > Obama position, but I'm not sure whatever it is is a good case for voting.
