I guess that's one way for Hillary to buttress her argument that she's more electable... Either way, this is not good news for the Dems, especially given that McCain's favorables are now at 67%.
Meh, that's just the sour grapes that comes with the primary season. How many Romney/Huckabee/Giuliani/Thompson supporters said that they would never support McCain? My guess is at least a comparable percentage.

But as soon as the primary's over, most of those same people STFU.
