After reading that poll, the only thing that will fix the US is hard depression. That is one depressing poll.
Interestingly, Obama lowest level of black support was with ages 18-29 (91-8). Odd.
I would have thought the youth black vote would be at the highest and the older set would be somewhat more pragmatic. But nope.
Romney cleaned up in every white category, even white youths (which Obama won in 2008). Too bad we are outgunned and not as racist as the rest of the hyphenated Americans.
Obama only won by appealing to minorities, the young - who are very easy targets for the kinds of messages they get from hip-hop and popular media, and women - who the left targeted successfully with their negative anti-Romney messaging. Their side can't do much better in terms of the numbers of those groups they wound up with. We absolutely can. I would be more worried, long term, if I were them.
Think about how many of us were at some point in our earlier lives liberal, because we bought into the message of ‘fairness’, not realizing that it was a Trojan horse for something destructive. Eventually, the Obama youth will mature - and their votes will change. (Republican PACs should have been running ads of Al Sharpton saying ‘bring back the draft’, on campuses nationwide).
The post-graduate vote that the left gets comes from a mix of lawyers - (the protected post-graduate elites of the left), college professors who are either too stupid to have realized that Marxism is for idiots - or who are thinking the they are going to get more grant funding, teachers with graduate degrees, and a slew of people who resent the fact that despite their advanced degrees in something not particularly useful (for which they didn't work half as hard as someone with a BS in engineering did) aren't making much money.
In short. Take heart. We haven't lost the country. We've been outmaneuvered, but now is not the time to quit. It is the time to work even harder, and go after them much, much harder. In their face, all the time, in every place. Let's Roll.
On what possible issue could women go for a loser like zero by 11 points?
