Didn’t Huckabee get 48% of the black vote in Arkansas? Why does he have such a strong appeal for a demographic that usually votes dim?
I used to be perplexed by socially conservative blacks voting dim but now we have white evangelicals voting for Mr. $50 abortions. Now I’m just disappointed by everyone.
“Didn’t Huckabee get 48% of the black vote in Arkansas?”
Yes, if Huck could do anything even close to that nationally it would be the kiss of death for the democrats; losing their stranglehold on the black vote would destroy them as a party.
They both share similar positions, I believe. They are Christians who believe that compassion should be shown through all venues: private and public (government). For instance: if someone is poor, the government should do something about it, regardless the background of the person (hispanic, black, white) or the source of the poverty.
My insurance plan has a copy of $50 for abortions that I will never use — get over it. It’s called personal responsibility.
