One only has to look at elections in which crossovers could occur and in states that vote Republican. Barak Obama has done exceptionally well and the data suggests that he does very well with these so called independent voters whom I suspect are actually Republicans content with ensuring a Hillary defeat and not an Obama victory.

This election season the Republican primary field was full of candidates who did not inspire and coupled with a sense of hopeless certainty that the GOP candidate would be defeated no matter the out come of the Democratic primary process was bound to ensure that the driving principal behind this years election is not who would be the next president but who would not be the next president.

Barak Obama is being driven to the nomination and most likely the White House by Republicans whose entire focus this primary season is to ensure that Clinton be defeated. I think the DNC might take a careful look at their primary process after this primary and decide if they do in fact want Republicans deciding who their candidate is in future elections.
