We don't need a big shift in Black turnout and/or Black votes against Obama. We just need a 4 or 5 point drop in each among Black voters and Obama is in big trouble. Yesterday Rev. Owens came out in support of Chick-fil-A so any thought that he would back down is gone.

“Evolved” positions - why is it that they seem to ratchet only one direction?

Deeper and ever deeper into the fever swamp.

But hey, Obama cannot possibly be confused with being a “flip-flop” on his positions. More like “slippery slope”.

Yeah. Just keep walking out on the political plank, Obama.
Don’t stop or look back, just close your eyes and keep walking.

he was taking a calculated risk.

Math was likely not his best subject.

The foreign national screwed up by comparing sodomy to civil rights. A lot of blacks were disgusted by that.

“20% of Black respondents said they would either not vote for Obama or actually vote for Mitt Romney.”

They’re either lying to the pollsters or to themselves. 20% of black America is not voting for Romney even if he was running unopposed. They may not do so as enthusiastically as they did in 2008 but they are still going to vote for Obama.

When the backlash came, was a lot stronger than anyone would have expected.

I'll believe it when I see it reflected at the polls.
95% of blacks will vote for blacks, no matter what... racists every one.

The latest stats revealed that 65% of Dems overall support “gay marriage,” so I don’t think it was much of a risk at all.

The Dems who are opposed to it will vote against “gay marriage” if that specific issue comes up (for example, in a state referendum) but will vote for the Dem candidate anyway in the general elections.

Being a Dem trumps their loyalty to any other values. In the case of blacks, they see being black and being a Dem as synonymous, so they’ll vote for him no matter how many of them may be “personally opposed” to “gay marriage.”
