Not to any meaningful effect. The Bradley effect is no longer statistically significant.

this wouldn't be the Bradley Effect...

Then what would it be?

What you're suggesting is that people would, before the election, support the black man, but change their vote or not vote at the last minute. That sounds like Bradley to me.

the Bradley effect involves people lying to pollsters because they want to appear like open-minded non-racist people.  this would involve people who intend to Obama having an existential crisis about what they're about to do.  it's not my job to teach you what the Bradley effect is.  look it up.

Well, it'd have the same effect.

Freak out because he's black?  Some
Freak out because they realize how awful and unprepared he is? A lot
Freak out because they don't want a celebrity elitist as president? Countless

Just some of the reasons Obama will be smashed come November

Wasn't Ronald Reagan a celebrity?
