"The Revs. Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and Joseph Lowery and hundreds of black leaders from around the country are focusing on mobilizing black voters for the fall elections ... [T]hey will work to combat Christian conservatives they say have used gay marriage and abortion to distract from larger moral issues such as the war, voting rights, affirmative action and poverty."
This is about as dumb a strategy as I've ever heard. Dems already get 95% of the black vote, so they're going to invest all this effort to get 96%? Sometimes I think that black liberals are so dumb they validate the "Bell Curve."
Dolllar for dollar, they are better off investing in more voter fraud. It will yield better results. Can't beat those 105-110% turnouts in all black precincts!
This could, of course, be a defensive effort to keep more blacks from defecting. That is probably the true reason. But you won't hear the media reporting on that point.
Bingo!
