WSJ Poll - Romney gets 0% of the black vote

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/...d152_blog.html

He ain't coming up roses with gays, Hispanics and the ladies either. I suppose suppressing/disenfranchising the vote is his best tactic.

But he does well with old white men. Just like Lincoln used to till all their customers died off.

I'm not surprised at all after the 2000 election debacle that was decided by 5 angry old white dudes. A big goose egg among blacks?? Wow.

So long as the election involves anything but the economy the Republicans are fighting an uphill battle. They can throw against the wall all the red meat 'disinformation' they like (the work requirement for welfare being allegedly lifted, for example) it won't accomplish much except fire up those who won't vote for Obama anyway.

And, the ones who believe whatever they hear, so long as it comes from Fox or Boss Limbaugh.

Not this old white man, that lying bastard can go to hell as far as I am concerned.

Just your friendly neighborhood WASP.

As to the OP;

Really? I'm shocked, SHOCKED I tell you! Hasn't anyone told them he wants to give fat tax cuts to rich folks? Surely, THAT would sway them into his camp.........

I listen to black radio fairly often (I like old rap, motown and r&b), usually on the way home from work (talk radio with tunes) and all I have to say is, the hip, the hop, the hippety hip hip hop and you don't stop rockin to the bang bang boogie said up jump the bogie to the rythm of the bogity beat.

I would never know that most black people are democrats. They say that if a Rep is elected the sky will fall. Sounds familiar... ;D
