FROZEN 4 VOTER

Submitted by bill young on Wed, 2008/09/10 - 12:03pm.

Thats the nickname given the NCAA hockey finals.Like the Final 4 in basketball.

The Frozen 4 voter is one that likes the hockey finals more than the basketball finals.

Palin is making inroads to the Frozen 4 voters along the US/Candian border.It's why Montana & the Dakotas are now firmly in McCain-Palin camp & Mich/Wis is tightening up.

If this Frozen 4 fever sparked by Palin ends up costing us Mich or Wis ..we lose.

And,man,if Frozen 4 fever hits the dark blue state of Minn. We lose big.

but the Obama camp had better keep an eye on the white woman's vote. The most recent polls of that demographic aren't pretty. If that camp breaks for Palin, Obama is toast. I'm still not convinced the name on a VP candidacy makes or breaks a campaign (LBJ exception noted), but a 20 point swing among white female voters made me gulp.

I'd like to live in a Blue

I'd like to live in a Blue state but I might settle for a pink/yellow/whie or grey/light blue state. Why don't they standardize on their leaning/tossup colors?
