Heard this morning that the Dem have not won a majority of the white vote since 1960.  Can anyone verify this?  In presidential races I mean.

as to gender, all the media talks about is how the gOP isn't getting women, well if so close where are the men, with the GOP.

Well you are asking a guys only audience what do you think we will say? Smiley

Especially when this year is supposed to be about NASCAR dads, the male gender gapo I would think would get some play.


Aren't women more easily swayed than men, generally, or is that just a sexistic myth? Wink

NASCAR- is the professional racing league here in America, you know the "Winston Cup Series" , Dale Jerret, Tony Stewart, Jeff Gordon, etc.

One of the fastest growing sports here in the states and important as it is seen as new "Soccer moms" group./  Mostly fathers int eh South and Midwest that enjoy the sport and vote GOP and increasingly going more GOP, but Dems for some reason think they can steal them away this year.

no all of it was true.  

Ah. I figured I rembered it from somewhere, but I didn't make the connection right away. Thanks. (I don't know a lot about the sport, but I've heard of it...) I will tell myself that the last part was biased! Smiley

that may happen in this lifetime, LSU and OKL both looked terrible last night BTW.

I hate NASCAR.  And it isn't growing, it stopped growing when Earnhardt died.  You know what's growing?  College Football.  When we institute a lucrative playoff system, watch the people and the $$$ flow in.

Always trying to be inclusive aren't you?


I think we should try to court the saps who watch such drivel like the black plague.

Agreed.

Think USC is the best team by far.

and loved how the BCS failed!!! this year.  Always get some rep to come out and say see it worked, well they couldn't save face this year.

ok back to reality...

But USC looked damn good against Michigan.  I like the old bowl system better, with the traditional conference matchups.  The BCS is BS.

probably if you scroll up, you'll see you asked, what are you trying to tell me.

That if you 'work for a living', (a term I get from my dad, a huge nascar fan) the Democrat party is no longer for you.  You might not fit the snobbish view of America from million dollar manhattan apartments or the bastions of liberal/socialist thought and thus would be an embarrassment.

OK, I got that, I was just wondering why you were directing at me in a so specific way, like I needed to know this more than any other person on the board. But I find it easy to believe you, most communists have always been upper class. My dad comes from a working class family and he has always held open contempt for "spoiled upper-class kids" who were communists in 1968 movement (or later for that matter).
