race riots could cause white and Hispanic voters to turn away from Obama in November
Without a doubt.
Back in '68, Americans were so sick of race riots they even elected (the hated) Dick Nixon who ran on a "law and order" ticket.
He also promised to end LBJ's war in VN.

Ahh, the election of 1968 when the Communists took control of the Democrat Party and still run the Party till today.

Up to that time, we told each other, "We have to kill these Communists here in Vietnam so we don't one day have to kill them in the United States." But in 1968, we realized we had been killing the wrong Communists.
