Poll Shows Widening Racial Gap In Presidential Contest
Jon Cohen and Rosalind S. Helderman October 25
The 2012 election is shaping up to be more polarized along racial lines than any presidential contest since 1988, with President Obama experiencing a steep drop in support among white voters from four years ago.
At this stage in 2008, Obama trailed Republican John McCain by seven percentage points among white voters. Even in victory, Obama ended up losing white voters by 12 percentage points, according to that year’s exit poll.
But now, Obama has a deficit of 23 percentage points, trailing Republican Mitt Romney 60 percent to 37 percent among whites, according to the latest Washington Post-ABC News national tracking poll. That presents a significant hurdle for the president — and suggests that he will need to achieve even larger margins of victory among women and minorities, two important parts of the Democratic base, to win reelection.

Is that the Bradley Effect or were the exit polls off?
Nooooo.. I think 80% black/Hispanic support for 0bama is because the economy is doing GREAT! /s
Hey Bobo, so you're gonna blame them for your defeat? That ought to go over well. #facepalm
This is what I'm talking about as the most underreported story of this election cycle: Obama has damaged the Democrat brand. Badly.
Your post allows me to bring up favorite memory of Kissinger. On NYE2000, one of the nets went around and asked famous people what they envisioned as the greatest challenge of the dawning new century. And there was a lot of silly shit, and then suddenly Kissinger appeared, and gravenly intoned: "The Balkanization of the United States."
Never forget.

But 99% of the blacks voting for Obama is not racist.
“Poll Shows Widening Racial Gap In Presidential Contest”
Yeah it sure does. Just look at the black vote going to Obama. They can’t bring themselves to vote for the white guy.
Racists!
The MSM never mentions that 90% of blacks will vote for Obama! Racist voting is OK coming from blacks, liberals have NO problems with it.
Heaven forbid white voters prefer competence and and other presidential qualities in the Republican candidate. They’re supposed to feel sorry for Obama and inflict more AA disaster upon America to be politically correct.
Screw the Obama-loving media!
“Screw the Obama-loving media!”
That’s what I say. They’ve worn out that race card.
Reading user comments to these articles is usually more informative than the articles themselves. I am beginning to despise the liberal point of view in a way that I have never felt before. Personally, I can predict with 90% accuracy what liberals will say even before they open their mouths — it gets so tedious. I used to enjoy political debate, but now I am just sick of it. It’s becoming like a bad marriage where there is nothing left to say anymore. Hopefully, Americans of different opinion can find some common ground. I believe a renewed respect for the Constitution and an increased reliance on the 10th Amendment to handle those contentious issues on which no national consensus can be found is the right answer. God help our country make it through this difficult period.
If obama only has 80% of the black vote, he’s through.
I smell landslide but way too early to start gloating.
“So do Hispanics now get to decide a US Presidential Election?”
They will, and when you see any playground or maternity ward today you’ll understand why. Towns that are officially 90% “white” have students that are 50% Hispanic.
Indeed - Many folks are oblivious to what is really going on. The West and the South's school population is over 50% 'people of color' with CA coming in @ over 70%. The tidal wave is growing and the PTB are playing games about it.
Most of what you say is probably true, but the fact remains that most Hispanics and now most Asians prefer the Democrats.
The true story here is that Romney is getting 60% of the white vote, yet he is only a few points ahead. As recently as the 90s, winning 60% of the white vote would equal a landslide, easy victory. But it doesn’t now because the GOP has been too stupid and and too cowardly to stop mass immigration (legal and illegal). Mass immigration was always going to favor the Democrats. It’s obvious really. The GOP should have ended it decades ago before it really go out of hand. Instead they’ve made it worse by passing absurd expansions of immigration like the ridiculous Diversity Visa Lottery.
The writing is on the wall. As someone else has said; either the GOP will end mass immigration, or mass immigration will end the GOP.
“The most despised and vilified “class” in the United States is the white, heterosexual male.”
Excluding the white, liberal male, the ordinary American white male is the most intelligent demographic in the U.S. That is a huge threat to Marxist rule. That same white male is also the best fighter in the world. That terrifies the fascists occupying Washington.
Combine smarts with martial skills, and one can see why white males are despised by leftists. It also explains why the American Marxists are playing footsie with the Muslim hordes. They need a surrogate army to wipe out the white male because the typical American Marxist is too cowardly to do the job themselves.
Somehow they can’t see the obvious.
If 40% of white people are voting for someone of a different race, and only 20% of melanin enhanced people are voting for a white person,
it’s the browns and blacks that are more RACIST than the whites.
Having children is a leap of faith that many whites simply won’t risk anymore. I know it is hard (as a parent of young children myself), but the alternative was unthinkable.
In other news, sales of Halloween costumes for pets are climbing steadily...
