McCain appears to be winning among anti-war Republican voters.
(CNN) - Another surprising finding in the national exit polls: John McCain - who has made the war in Iraq and the need for continued U.S. involvement there a centerpiece of his campaign - is actually winning among Republicans who are against the war. Among those Republicans who disapprove of the war, nearly half voted for McCain, while only a quarter voted for Mitt Romney - even though McCain spent the past few weeks trying to portray Romney as more liberal on the war. Moderates - those most likely to disapprove of Iraq – seem to simply prefer McCain, even when they don't square on the issues. – CNN Senior Political Analyst Bill Schneider Filed under: Bill Schneider |
