I’ve always expected a racial theme to chase blacks to the polls. That can turn off whites, but Obama won’t do it directly.

If there's one thing Obama doesn't have a shortage of, it's race-baiting surrogates...

Four years ago today, Obama led McCain by 7% (51-44). Interesting.

So appropriate...

Good one.

Romney’s spot-on about the 47% who will always vote Democrat. He feels it expedient to back away from that particular truth, but it was and remains the truth. If that wasn’t true then we’d be looking at a total blowout for Romney, but we aren’t. Obama still gets the 47% despite the world blowing up in his face. Wouldn’t it be deliciously ironic if Obama lost with exactly 47% of the vote?

Ras has to go with his history of party ID, not the history of Presidential exit turnout polls. He should make the switch soon from D+3 to R+3, or he will miss the mark badly on his accuracy.
