You two can drop the act now. Even the Romney campaign is admitting that they're embracing a racist strategy focused on driving up white turnout.

It astounds me how a poll out last week shows Romney with ZERO percent of African American support...and this is pinned on Romney while polls showing whites preferring Romney are then attributed- by some- to racism

Let's be consistent... if it is not racist to design a campaign to appeal to minorities (which I do NOT believe is racist), it is also not racist to design a campaign to appeal to whites

Obama wants to win as many white voters as possible, Romney wants to win as many white voters as possible.

Obama wants to win as many minority voters as possible, Romney wants as few minority voters to be able to vote as possible.

And yes, it is racist to design a campaign to appeal to whites if the foundation of that appeal to whites is racism.

You mean like sending Jesse Jackson into my neighborhood to turn out the black vote (2000)?

Um, no, not at all.

TX didn't have an exit poll for some stupid reason, but it's pretty obvious that he came nowhere close:



The Republicans can't just trot out their same obsolete ideas in a brown package and expect Hispanics to be dumb enough to jump on board. Their ideology, policies and rhetoric are repugnant to Hispanics (and blacks, and Asians, and single women, and...)

Yeah, the Republicans wanted an ideological choice election, and the Democrats won. The center-piece of the Obama campaign was raising taxes on the rich; the center-piece of the Republican campaign was taking healthcare away from tens of millions of people to fund military spending and tax cuts for the rich. The voters picked our ideology and rejected yours.
