Will white men sink Obama? (CBS plays race card to try and save Obama)
CBS ^ | 10/26/2012 | BRIAN MONTOPOLI

Listen to President Obama and Mitt Romney on the campaign trail, and you could be forgiven for briefly thinking only one gender is allowed to vote. Both candidates regularly tailor their message to female voters: You can see it in the president's attacks on Romney's desire to cut Planned Parenthood funding and potentially appoint judges to overturn Roe v. Wade, and in Romney's claim that "this president has failed America's women" due to an uptick in female poverty.

There's a reason for this: Women are widely perceived as more likely than men to be swing voters. In the battleground state of Colorado, for example, both campaigns are open about the fact that they believe whoever makes the best case to suburban women will win the state.

Yet all the talk about women might make it easy to forget that men are a significant chunk of the electorate as well. While women outvoted men by about 10 million votes in the 2008 presidential election, men still made up 48 percent of the electorate. And white men alone made up more than one third of the electorate - 36 percent - according to national exit polls.

Will white men sink Obama?

One of the only demographics that isn't expected to think about and act in line with its group identity, and thus freer than any demographic to think independently.

IN OTHER WORDS, somebody's gotta do it, and white males are the only ones with the true political freedom to do it.

I hope so. The Democrat party is openly anti-White.

On the "race card"...I saw something recently,almost certainly here,which nicely sums up that issue and it went something like "exactly which of Obama's policies would I be supporting if he was white?"

Beautifully put,IMO.

Yeah, when I go to the polls I’ll be symbolically drilling holes in the bottom of Obozo’s Ship of State. But why do I figure that when it starts to sink, Obama will get one of his underlings to go down with the ship instead of him...

“Will white men sink Obama?”

I hope so. If not for those racist blacks, Obama never would have won the first time.

I wouldn’t vote for the black sonofabitch if he were a white sonofabitch!

It is not about race!

It is about content of character!

Ironically, every time the Democrat “mainstream” newrsooms talk about Ubama and race and white men, those few white men who are still clueless enough to vote Democrat begin to wonder what’s wrong with them.

But he’ll still get the dumb ass white man vote. Hopefully that won’t be enough.
