Recently, it seems that there are larger numbers of whites stategically placed for the TV camera behind Obama at his rallies--- and fewer blacks & other ethnicities.
I bet Obama's internal polls show that he's lost "Average Joes"--- BIG TIME.

They have been sprouting across the front lawns of western Pennsylvania, just enough of them among the Hallowe’en ghouls and zombie decorations to give John McCain the ghost of a chance.
The signs read, “Another Democrat for McCain”. They are to be found at the homes of women like Eileen Kettelberg, a factory worker who has been a Democrat all her life but will not vote for Barack Obama because she believes he insulted Hillary Clinton – and, by extension, all Democratic women – by failing to pick her as his running mate.
There is another one outside Joyce Wiczorek’s home in Franklin. “I just don’t feel I know who Obama is,” the 57-year-old former teacher said last week. “With McCain and Sarah Palin, at least you know who you’re getting.”
There are other reasons why blue-collar Pennsylvania Democrats are considering a Republican vote this year. Some cite Obama’s liberal views on abortion and perceived antipathy to gun-owners. Others think that McCain, a Vietnam veteran, cares more about their sons and daughters who are serving in Iraq. Many are worried by McCain’s claims that Obama is a closet socialist who is planning to “punish the successful”.
Both Democratic and Republican officials suspect that at least some of these reasons are camouflage for racism. “There are still some people who have trouble voting for a person who is part African-American,” said Tom Balya, commissioner of Pennsylvania’s Westmoreland County, which is expected to vote for McCain even though 50,000 more Democrats are registered as voters there than Republicans.

Wal Mart women. Soon to join NASCAR dads as the most hated phrase in the US among liberals and the media elite.
What is with the silly link to walmart women. Only a moron would not shop there or some effete metro from wallstreet.
Has to be due to racism, because it couldn’t possibly be due to Zero’s sexism.
No one ever questions why 200% of blacks are voting for the biracial guy.......

Already in Barry’s column?
Obama’s “percieved antipathy to gun owners”????
That’s quite an understatement.
Recently, it seems that there are larger numbers of whites stategically placed for the TV camera behind Obama at his rallies--- and fewer blacks & other ethnicities.
I bet Obama's internal polls show that he's lost "Average Joes"--- BIG TIME.
No. You're wrong, Tom Balya. The USA is the most color-blind country on the planet. Stop trying to lay white-black guilt on us.
Alot of people don't want to vote for a socialist/communist who can't tell us where he was born, nor when, nor who was his father.
Strange story.
I guess Marxist media is trying to cover up all their bias for Obama, which didn’t translate into the Obama votes they hoped for, and is now trying to explain why McCain is heading towards a landslide victory.
Last minute change of heart from Malmart women, yea, that’s it.
Not this Black person...
I voted for the Maverick & The Lady!
Or his Marxism/Communism. Or the Fascism of his supporters. This election is all about the isms.
Yep, I saw those crazy comments. I believe the poster actually referred to McCain supporters as “meo nazis”, lol.
(PaMom channelling her inner Joe Biden)...'Mark my words, it won't be 6 hours after the polls close that PA isn't 'blamed.'
Thank God for England’s free press , once again. This kind of news story gets the spike in American news rooms.
I'm expecting widespread rioting in Boise.
