Well. In 2004 Bush got 16% of the Black vote in Ohio. Arguably, gave him the election. The generation that was bought and stayed bought, in the 1930's, is just about all dead, thank goodness. Younger Blacks have had a little different experience.

Only the 'rat patronage is the same.

I don’t dispute your numbers. Had Bush been running against a black candidate, however, I think the 94% value is more likely. It happens in Philly in every single election—94% is the floor, with 97% more typical. I’ve seen it as high as 99%. In my experience, no voting bloc is more racist (or could possibly be, given that the maximum is 100%).
