WASHINGTON, June 9 (UPI) -- Although former Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton has endorsed Barack Obama, not all of her supporters say they are willing to follow her.
On Clinton's campaign Web site, some of the New York senator's supporters wrote that they would never support Obama, the presumptive Democratic nominee, and will support Republican John McCain, CNN reported Monday.
"I love her and will vote for her in 2012, but it's McCain all the way now," wrote one within moments of the former first lady's address.
A new CNN/Opinion Research Corp. poll indicates that if Obama does not select Clinton as his running mate, 22 percent of her supporters would stay home in November, while another 17 percent would vote for McCain.
"That's just one estimate of the 'Clinton factor,' and it may not be an accurate predictor since it piles several hypotheticals on top of each other and asks people to guess their state of mind five months from now," said Keating Holland, CNN's polling director.
He added, "Nonetheless, it does indicate that unmotivated Clinton supporters may be a bigger risk to Obama than defections from the Clinton camp to McCain."
The CNN poll's sample size and margin of error were not reported,
