Stacey Dash recently tweeted her support for Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, accompanied by a patriotic swimsuit picture of herself.
But now her political viewpoint has become the subject of online attacks, with many expressing crude distaste that she isn’t endorsing President Obama – and race has become a key motivator behind the digital abuse.
“You’re an unemployed black woman endorsing Mitt Romney. You’re voting against yourself thrice. You poor beautiful idiot,” one Twitter user wrote, while @Black Voice wrote, “Stacey Dash had a perm since birth. I knew I couldn’t trust her.. lol.”
Others accused the actress of “voting for white supremacy,” claiming she “is white with a dark tan,” and calling Dash a slur of offensive names.
Several other Obama supporters even went as far as to encourage “the old hag” to “kill herself.” One suicide encourager is listed as a doctor and politically active Democrat in Washington D.C., and although he reportedly has deleted the inflammatory “kill yourself” tweet, it was captured by social media news site, Twitchy.com.
But Dash seems to be taking the backlash in stride.
“My humble opinion… EVERYONE is entitled to one,” she tweeted in response.
But the 46-year-old's plug for Romney attracted plenty of applause, too.
“Thank you for being willing to think for yourself despite what your haters have to say,” tweeted one user, while another noted, “You can NEVER, EVER (did I say never?) NEVER leave the Dem party if you r Black. Once you do, the name calling begins.”

“The problem is that Stacey doesnt conform to what the predominent media image of ‘black’ is. (ie Beyonce etc)”
There’s a fact! Stacey is drop dead gorgeous and Beyonce just has a big mouth and butt. :<)
Baby got Back!
How dare she not succumb to the 50 years of programming which defines group identity as superior to any individual choice or decision. The others of her group(s) must berate her until she falls in line.
Thanks but post #21 was more of what I had in mind.
Stacy Dash use to post here I think she was Dashing Dasher ? prolly not I don’t know
She looks like she just has a great tan. What is she 1/32 black? Sorry all this nonsense is hitting her. Liberals are nasty snakes.
No, she decided she didn't want to be on the Democrat welfare plantation. But you go ahead and set up your permanent address there, witch.
Holy cow.
When I see a picture of Beyonce, my first impression is, "good job hairdresser, good job makeup artist".
I think people's first impressions when they see a picture of Ms. Dash, is "good job, God." Real thing, all natural. And she seems a joyful person, best beauty treatment in the world.
Be joyful, conservative women! "The Joy of the Lord is our strength!" Plus, it makes man honorable, and women look incredible! No shipping and handling, it's just free! LOL
Quality posting.
Quality posting.
Boy, if its been said once, its been said a million times. People are entitled to endorse whomever they want.
Actually I'm somewhat grateful that he has emboldened liberals to show us their true colors.
Good God Almighty!
That is just magnificent!
HOORAY Stacey Dash!
He's a watermelon in my book 
Green on the outside and commie red on the inside.
Stand your ground Stacey!
