So I see a black woman clapping at a Romney speech today...

Money can sway a lot of people to do things that go against their own interests. I'm sure she's on the Romney payroll.

Plenty of racist posts in this thread. Pay attention to what side they come from. Lots of closed minded folks...

I think he does a great job relating to the average person.

You are the one who referred to his Chicago Southside neighborhood as the hood. His neighborhood is my neighborhood.

If you folks haven't noticed, Republicans have kind of defined fame down. While the Dems get George Clooney or Scarlett Johanssen, the GOP gets Yakov Smirnoff and the bellboy from Love Boat.
Oh something to be so proud of, not!!!...........The Republicans have Clint Eastwood & Alveda King!!!

I have to surmise she was a millionaire. If she was, she at least would be likely voting for her own financial motives, but if not, then she identifies with someone who does not give a damn about anyone other than rich, white males.

Aint America great?
Libs loves they race cards

I forget. Wasn't it McCain who called the Vietnamese people "gooks", and they threw a rally parade for him when he visited Little Saigon just because he's a Republican and a previous war vet? They even had the flower floats and Miss Saigon there to greet him!

****ing hilarious!
Or would this have been those that tortured him for years........ at least McCain knows personally what it's like to be held prisoner, unlike this President who barely knows Americas history.

Lmao, liberal hypocrisy. You admit that Obama is rich, but he relates to the average person, yet liberals say that Romney is out of touch because he's rich. Which one is it liberals. And yes south side chicacgo is a sh*t hole.

1. Big difference between a $250+ million net worth and a $10 million net worth.

2. Romney has always been extremely well off (even as a child) and he's been making tens of millions every year since the 1980s. On the other hand, Obama didn't start making millions until 2005 or so. Once again, big difference.

3. The Obama's are Black, and regardless of how much a Black person has in their bank account, they almost always have ties to a few friends and/or relatives who are much less fortunate or even at the poverty level. I bet you could take virtually any wealthy Black person in America and link them to one or more friends or relatives who aren't doing well financially and have struggled greatly. However, in Romney's case, I have a feeling he doesn't have many (or any) friends or relatives who are not well off.

Intelligent black people quickly realized that Obama was installed in office by white guys..the worst of the white users..they understand that Obama is not loyal to any race...So when they applaud Romney it is because they figure that there are two sets of white rulers...and they just don't think that the whites that control Obama are of any use to them. So they choose the alternative- Having dark toned skin is not cutting it- The ruse is over- Do you really want to see Obama continue as Bindens meet puppet...Look at Biden's face- when you vote for Obama - You are actually electing Biden is President.
