“The low numbers regarding the question about not relating to average people??? WTH??? That number blows me away... I also still don’t understand the women gap either.”
It’s not a women gap, but racism. Blacks are the only significant demographic group who don’t like Sarah Palin. ABC doesn’t dare publish its internals on the Sarah Palin question because this racism would then be exposed to the light of day for what it is. But now you know.
Yesterday’s Battleground poll, which oversamples Democrats but just barely (so it’s still a pretty good poll), reports the following favorable-unfavorable ratings for Sarah Palin. I break this down into excruciating detail to make my point:
Overall: 51-42
Whites: 56-39
White men: 58-36
White women: 53-420
Hispanics: 56-32
Hispanic men: 62-32
Hispanic women: 49-43
Other races besides blacks: 55-31 (breakdown by gender n/a)
All excellent numbers so far. But now we need to bring in the Sarah haters:
Blacks: 12-73
Black men: 13-61
Black women: 11-82
You got that? Sarah Palin scores 49 or better in every racial/gender group except one: blacks. Obama and his adoring media will tell us that this isn’t racism and that PDS has its roots in something other than racism. But these numbers don’t lie. This is what the media is attempting to spin in polls such as ABC’s latest BS of a writeup. And had it published its internals, as any honest pollster would have done, we would have immediately spotted the petty racist hatred for what it is.
Incidentally, here is also the breakdown of Sarah’s favorable/unfavorable ratings by a few other groups — more insight into who loves Sarah and who hates her:
Republicans: 89-6 (McCain scores 93-6)
Independents: 47-39 (McCain scores 56-36)
Democrats: 19-74 (McCain scores 20-76 — interesting)
Interesting. How did you come up with those demographic breakdowns?
