I am making no bones about my desire for an Obama win for the DemonCrap nomination — but despite this win in South Carolina, I don’t think it is likely.
The Clintons are never more dangerous than they are in this condition, and if Obama thinks they have been fighting dirty before he is about to find out what the word really means.
And yes, once crowned, the blacks who now hate her gut will pull the lever for her in November, or at best, stay home. They won’t vote Republican in any numbers to be significant.
I don’t know about that. Ok, say Clinton wins the nomination. Romney and his father have a loooong documented history of supporting equal rights. That may mean something when push comes to shove. You know why? Because it’s the truth.
But black voter turnout declining could help tip the balance in some states to the Republican.
For example, Michigan went narrowly for Kerry in 2004 due to overwhelming black support in Detroit, offsetting Republican majorities elsewhere in the state. Same thing happened in Pennsylvania, with Phila. supplying a big Dem. vote to offset Republicans elsewhere in PA. So while there won’t be a surge of blacks to the Republicans, if enough stay home and don’t bother to vote for Billary, it could make a difference.
