It has been demonstrated over and over again that in an election where there is a black candidate and a white candidate, the black candidate will over poll. People are afraid of being branded “racist” for not voting for the black candidate; that changes in the voting booth, especially when the economy is in the tank and sinking fast.

Strangely enough, the same “over poll” “Bradley effect” meme was trotted out with McCain too.

How’d that turn out?

That is how I look at that, that people do not want to be accused of being racist, but once in the privacy of the voting booth, his oppoinent will come out the winner.

I’ve heard that as well, but it sure didn’t help us in 2008. I really thought that was a factor and that McCain would squeak by.

This time around, though, is different. Zippy can’t run against Bush’s record - though he seems to still be trying. He now owns the economy. He owns his record of 4 years with nothing to show for it.

First actual job he’s ever had. EPIC FAIL.

His only hope is massive election fraud.

Stay vigilant, Freepers!
