If Obama won the poor white vote (or did well enough to win states like Louisiana and Kentucky), then he'd easily win Mississippi.
Right. In Mississippi (and Alabama) the GOP is the White People's Party, and the Democratic Party is the Black People's Party. That sort of polarization ensures machine politics even in hick towns and rural districts and the sort of corruption that one sees in Chicago -- but without the usual efficiency.
