How come the Obamaites always feel that in the states where their saviour lost that the vote would have been closer if more people had voted. Remember FL where he lost by a landslide but of course he would have gotten more votes if he had campaigned there (he was the only candidate with TV ads). But those who voted for Hillary were passionate and didn't need an incentive to vote. Now it is Puerto Rico where the turnout was smaller than expected but Obama would have gotten all those votes if only the people had gone to the polls. That shows the Obama enthusiasm. Maybe he could have dangled some money under their noses or driven them to the polls himself. Hillary supporters needed no such incentives. But then we know that the no shows would have supported Obama. I thought it was Hillary who made up the stories to suit her situation. Well in spite of the lack of enthusiasm, the DNC gave the nomination to Obama. Shows where their brains are, in the same place as their nominee. That will be obvious when McCain becomes president in November.
