Still waiting for a Republican pol (white OR black, now that we have Steele to embarrass us) try to boldly and unapologetically appeal to black voters on the basis of shared conservative values and principles rather than pandering or trying to be hip and kewl.

Good. Its well past time when democrats who expect all people to vote along ethnic lines are labeled for the racists they are.
When a democrat says that republicans will lose the latino vote if they oppose the Sotomayor confirmation. That democrat should be confronted about their insinuation that latinos are robotic bigots.
School vouchers would be a great place to start. That issue is “rainbow coalition” if ever there was one.
I’d kill to see a Republican candidate link arms with black parents on the steps of some liberal judge’s courthouse singing “We shall overcome”.
Maybe the realization that “health care reform” is actually intended to end lives will make a difference.
Of course this is true. Only about 99% of them voted for Obama.
Bullsh!+.
Obama’s approval ratings is 98% among blacks. 98%. Such conformity of thought is mind-boggling. Even Christ only had an 92% approval rating among his disciples.

This will be interesting and Obortion Obama loses more and more of the black population’s support.
BTTT!
Wishful thinking. Moral conservatives would be better off thinking how to advance their allies within the Democratic Party to pinch the lefties from all sides and to prevent their cause from crashing and burning through association with idiot or unpopular GOP actions.
Rallying people to one party wins elections. But bipartisanship wins long-term victory.
