obama really is turning democrats into Republicans...

The other day I made a comment about obama turning democrats into Republicans. Somebody told me that it was bullshit. I've been doing a little research and it turns out it's not bullshit. Here are some stats from Gallup.

This is a list of some States and the percentage of the population that is or leans democrat.

Illinois
2008 - 55.9
2010 - 47.7

California
2008 - 52.2
2010 - 46.8

Oregon
2008 - 52.0
2010 - 47.5

Washington
2008 - 50.9
2010 - 45.3

New York
2008 - 57.2
2010 - 50.5

New Jersey
2008 - 53.2
2010 - 46.6

Massachusetts
2008 - 60.3
2010 - 52.5

Connecticut
2008 - 56.7
2010 - 50.0

Rhode Island
2008 - 60.4
2010 - 48.2

Florida
2008 - 48.2
2010 - 42.7

Pennsylvania
2008 - 52.9
2010 - 46.4

Even in obama's home State of Illinois there is a substantial drop in people claiming to be democrats. I don't blame them. I wouldn't tell anyone if I was a democrat...
