Study: More than half of pets overweight
WASHINGTON, March 7 (UPI) -- U.S. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., sways more votes than Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., in the competition for crossover support, a survey indicated.
A Pew Research Center survey found that approximately 14 percent of Democrats claimed they would support McCain instead of Obama, compared to the 8 percent of Republicans who said they would support Obama, The Washington Times reported Friday.
"McCain poses a clear and present danger to Obama in that he draws Democrat base support in historic numbers," Republican strategist Scott Reed said.
Twenty percent of white Democratic voters said they would support McCain if Obama becomes the Democratic nominee, which is twice the number who said they would change party support if Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., became the party's nominee, the survey said.
