“Can you say ‘bradley factor little rat’?”
What if all polls are wrong, as they have been in previous campaigns, because the media is oversampling Democrats to depress the Republican turnout?
This article and many more that will appear like it are a blatant attempt at guilt tripping whitey into voting for Obama so that they won’t look like or think of themselves as racist. And I’m sure some gullible citizens will fall for it. Of course the fact that Obama is a Marxist liberal is totally ignored in the equation as to who to vote for, or his total lack of experience in foreign affairs during dangerous times (witness Georgia/Russia war that sprang up out of nowhere), or that Obama is an elitist, black liberation theology weaned, professorial waffler with no backbone. No, we are all racists, don’t you know. These liberal rags and news commentators make me sick.
If I agreed with only 50% of what Obama stands for, I’d vote for him rather than McCain. But the reality is, I agree with 45% of what McCain stands for and 0% of what Obama stands for.
I guess that makes me a typical bitter white person.
It is only going to get worse.
If there is going to be an “Obamessiah Effect” it is from reverse racism: all the people who want to vote for “1st Black President” and so tell pollsters they support Obambi..... but when alone in the voting booth, a certain number of such people will have their “Come to Jesus” moment and realize that they just can’t vote for the most far-left, inept, and inexperienced major party candidate ever.
They WANT to vote for him but they realize he’s unqualified and a really bad choice. The only ‘racism’ is in taking seriously a guy who would never be taken seriously if he were not black..... he’d be Dennis Kucinich.
Any “racism” will be that people wanted to like the guy, said they would vote for him, but when it comes down to it they (some number of people, even if it’s only a couple %) realize he’s an unqualified socialist weasel who just happens to be black. A white candidate with his descriptors never would have been a serious contender (well maybe John Edwards, but....) and never would have gotten past Hillary.
McCain Ping... Interesting read here. We could be further ahead than we thought.
Obama would be wise to have his surrogates shut up about race.
If he thinks he is going to shame white folks into voting for him because he is a black man then he is greatly mistaken. This kind of talk just pisses people off. White conservatives have supported black men like J.C. Watts. He couldn’t have won without that support.

White Democratic voters, OTOH, . . .
What if all polls are wrong? I’d be asking “What if all polls are right?”
When is the last time that August polls accurately portrayed the outcome of a November election?
The panic should have set in when they saw their line-up. Dodd? Biden? Kucinich??!!?!?!?!?!!!
I agree; the more that Race is a factor, the more damage it does to B. Hussein. White America is sick and tired of being accused of being a racists simply because they breathe.
Somehow I will just have to learn to live with myself after I acknowledge that I am a racist and vote against Obama.

Forget the polls, this election hinges on new voter turnout. If millions of new black, Latino and young voters DO show up in November then McCain’s in trouble. If they don’t, McCain stands a decent chance at an upset.
. Just keep reminding folks, that should work just fine. /s
