Plouffe optimista...

David Plouffe, eficiente campaign manager de Obama, que dicen que compite con el ex Senador Tom Dashle, de Dakota del Sur, y con el Congresista Rahm Emmanuel, de Illinois, por covertirse en Jefe de Gabinete de la Casa Blanca, aunque él lo niega, se ha manifestado esta mañana en términos muy optimistas sobre las tendencias del voto anticipado. Plouffe es de los elementos más confiados dentro de Team Obama, y hace tiempo que mantiene que su candidato lo está haciendo desproporcionadamente bien en estados tradicionalmente republicanos.

Marc Ambinder resume las palabras de Plouffe:

(...) ** In NV, 43% of Democrats who have voted early are new or sporadic voting Democrats

** In NC, 19% of Democrats who've voted early are Democrats who've never voted in a presidential election before

** Says Plouffe: "We are going much better with Hispanic voters in Florida than certainly was the case in 2004 and we believe in 2000. Puerto Rican voters, Columbian voters, and doing surprisinglky well with younger Cuban voters."

** "In Florida, a quarter of sporadic voting Democrats are turning out out that the same rate as very likely Democrats."

** Said the McCain campaign is spending 5,000 points worth of advertising in the Tampa television market. (...)
