"Speaking to Nigerian reporters Wednesday in the town of Abuja, Carter responded to a question about the prolonged race for the Democratic nomination.

"We are very interested in the primaries," Carter said, according to the Nigerian newspaper This Day. "Don't forget that Obama won in my state of Georgia. My town, which is home to 625 people, is for Obama. My children and their spouses are pro-Obama. My grandchildren are also pro-Obama. As a superdelegate, I would not disclose who I am rooting for, but I leave you to make that guess."

Carter spokeswoman Deanna Congileo confirmed the former president's remarks to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Thursday."

Jimmy Carter
The only president who has not lied to us in the last 40 years

He told the truth, and never waivered

Even though idiots in America wanted Reagan's morning in America instead of fixing the malaise that has grown daily ever since, so much so now we are "mourning in America"

God Blessed us with Jimmy Carter
Too bad America was so stupid to wish him away
We never knew what we had til we lost it

And Jimmy Carter has been the most religious person who never threw his religion in any of our faces.

Wish he could run a 2nd term

Just ran across this poll, Obama leads Clinton 45-43 in Pennsylvania:

Other polls mileage will vary, of course......


Nice breakdown and really shows Obama pulling in the young vote.



Keep in mind that the above is one poll. Like I said, polls mileage will vary. That poll was of likely DEMOCRATS.

The fly in the ointment is buried in the following story:

Obama readies plan to reshape the electorate
....
"Another high-stakes voter registration drive just concluded in Pennsylvania, where the deadline to register as a Democrat and participate in the primary was March 24. The Pennsylvania Department of State reports that more than 234,000 voters have either newly registered as Democrats or switched from other parties, and the state hasn't finished counting the new registrations."


...."or switched from other parties".... :spam:


It has already been reported that some (I said "some") GOP are switching to vote for Clinton in the Democratic primaries, not because they support her, but because they believe she's least likely to beat McCain in the Presidential election.

It happened in Texas, but this time, there is no "two-step" process to help filter out those voters (Limbots) with that intent.

Could we all that "spam" voting?
