Gosh it must be nice to be in a protected class instead of stuck being a WASP.

I wonder if the headline read "Poll Finds Whites Motivated To Vote In November" people would still think nothing of it like they do this one.

Your proposed headline sounds like something the media would write about “astroturf” “teabaggers” < /media ivory tower guffaw in calling conservatives homosexuals >.

There’s a big difference between telling a pollster you’re going to vote, and actually bothering to show up.

The social conservative black vote (the church going community who oppose homoseuxality and abortion) get a “do over” this November.

Nonpartisan?? I think AP confused nonpartisan with non-profit hoping no one would think to check.

This site looks about as partisan as they come imho.

And our government has already handed out BILLIONS to community organizations that can be counted to “get the vote out”. The money was looted from the treasury under the guise of “stimulation”.

"This site looks about as partisan as they come imho."

Political and economic studies, huh. When, I wonder, have they had Walter Williams or Thomas Sowell as guest speakers.

Right. Telling a pollster you are not going to vote 8 months down the road make you look lazy, apathetic and ill-informed.
