Black voters probably don't make up as large a portion of the electorate as middle-aged white women. However, the press has been astounded by the way that Obama has carried the black vote by 90% in most states since South Carolina.
Recently there seemed to be a demographic divide between the Clinton and Obama supporters: Obama has carried young voters (where by "young", I mean under 45), black voters, and the well educated / well off. Clinton has carried older voters (ie > 65), white women, hispanics, and unions. In yesterday's Virginia primary, however, Obama won every demograpic group except white women, and I think that Clinton's only strong bastion of support was among white women older than 45. |

The Media is pushing Obama hard and most people are sheep - they will just follow along and "do as they're told." Either way, it looks like he's got it wrapped up unless she can pull some of Jimx's magic rabbits out of her a**.

I'm confused by the polls stating its this or that demographic voting this or that way. There were no pollsters where I voted. So what, they stand at one station and get the snapshot of American voters from there? Or do they just pull this stuff from their behind and convince us its true?
Just think. We get to do this again in 4 more years. I bet Jeb Bush will run then. |

Here's the frustrating thing about McCain: McCain, even without catering to conservtive views, could be a foil to Obamamania that Clinton can never be; however, the conservatives apparently don't care for 'Straight Talk' either. While they are spoiled brats, McCain is too nice. I think McCain should do one of his own Sister Soulja moments to Ann Coulter.

Presumably in their own self interest.
