An article on CNN.com reports that exit polling showed John McCain struggled with voters considering themselves "very conservative."

Yet, the exit polls show that McCain received strong support from moderates who considered themselves "somewhat conservative."

The polling also showed that McCain supporters were slightly more concerned about the war in Iraq than the economy.

McCain's main rival, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, got much of his support from conservatives and evangelical voters.
