  • Dump all your French wines down the drain!

    I'm sure that 1% is the "real" France though.

    Poll: 1 Percent of French Prefer McCain

    A new poll underscores Barack Obama's overwhelming support in western Europe.




    It's hardly a secret that Barack Obama is Europe's favorite U.S. presidential candidate.

    But a new poll shows that in France, just 1 percent of people think John McCain should win the White House. By contrast, 78 percent back Obama, while 5 percent don't want either to win.

    According to Reuters, the poll found the five largest Europeans countries were unanimously behind Obama in the U.S. race.

    In Germany, McCain's support isn't much stronger. Five percent of those polled supported the Republican nominee, compared with 72 percent for Obama.

    The poll was conducted by Harris Interactive. It comes on the heels of another survey by Reader's Digest that found Obama was the preferred candidate in 16 of 17 countries. The only country to prefer McCain: the United States.

    Other U.S. polls, however, show McCain trailing Obama.

    Foreign Policy magazine also has published what it calls an "Electoral Map of the World" with Gallup's global numbers showing Obama heavily favored in western Europe, Africa and other parts of the world.

    Oh, and I would take issue with Fox's claim that McCain is preferred in the US. All decent polls show Obama at least 6%-7% ahead in the US.

        Fox was talking about the "real America." Ya know, that part where Americans love America.

          I like how four of the top ten countries for McCain still prefer Obama.

                          Actually, Fox is correct that the particular survey it referred to DID find more mccain supporters than Obama ...

                              Bud, read your own post. It clearly states that they are referring to a particular poll conducted by reader's digest.
