Indeed, if you had quoted the rest of my post you would have realised that I did post that I think the reason why he won southern states was because he got a majority of black votes. That was reffering to the racist and sexist extreme of the conservative right however, which is extremely white. |
Well he need not worry about them. They were never going to vote for a democrat anyway. It's the raciest white democrats he needs to worry about.
Here is a little known fact about the last election:
if every Democrat that voted for Bush had voted for Kerry, and every republican that voted for Kerry, had voted for Bush, Kerry would have run. Democrats put Bush in office.
Obama needs to make sure this does not happen again. I think he will. The reason Bill Clinton and Bush won, is because there was very little dirt to sling, as they had no experience. Obama has this advantage.
