It could cut either way. If they think that the Democratic race is over and vote in the Republican primary, then Obama's numbers drop. If they decided that they can't stand Hucakabee or Romney, and want McCain (an d that their vote will make a difference) because he's a secular conservative, McCain draws that support away from Obama.

McCain needed a Clinton win in Iowa, perhaps even more than Clinton. Conservatives want live babies so they can raise them to be dead soldiers. - George Carlin
In the 2004 Illinois Senate race, the Republicans did horribly because their guy was the subject of divorce proceedings where it was revealed he took his wife to strip clubs. A cardboard cut out of a child molester could have won that race against his replacement, Alan Keyes.
In Indianapolis in 2007, it looked like it was over for the Republicans after there endorsed candidate in the primary talkes about how the Democratic party was beholden to "the Jews." We laughed so hard we cried. Then, the replace hi with this roughneck ex marine Greg Ballard, who beat the incumbent Democratic mayor with a serious cash disadvantage.
It's unnatural for races to be static, and most often a sign of apathy or media bias. The latter being the clear case here. And I'll give my consent to any government that does not deny a man a living wage-Billy Bragg

The Republicans angered the Star Trek base, which has been the main source of their downfall ever since...
Edwards was on This Week this morning. Richardson was on Late Edition. Elizabeth Edwards was on Hardball the other night. Clinton's been on television demonstrating her "retooling" at rallies and Q&As. Obama's gone dark (no pun intended), with the exception of a few analyst stating that he now has got to win New Hamster.
This is to say nothing of the media "bias" involved with having St John McCain apparently on for the full hours of both Face the Nation and Meet the Press, despite having come in fourth in Iowa and barely outpacing Ron Paul.
It's a tired narrative. The evil press is out to get everybody (and nobody, if you believe the Clinstones' line on Obama) somehow. Conservatives want live babies so they can raise them to be dead soldiers. - George Carlin
