I totally agree--people are not cliches. I know plenty of people in every demographic who don't vote they way you think they would. I know plenty of people in every demographic who don't like the attempts to reach out to them. I've never been a fan of demographics, or of polls.
I should report you for posting my picture in the forums. man, my legs look pasty for living at the beach. looks like the top of my head got plenty of sun though.
what demographic will obama do worst in come election. I am guessing white males. he reached out to the female vote, he reached out to the black vote, and he reached out to the latino vote. he really didn't seem to care too much about white men, and I am thinking that he feels white men will vote for him out of guilt or something. not sure what his motivation was for ignoring one of the larger demographics. the only people I know who are voting for him, outside this forum, are females, but we know that females usually always vote for the democrat candidate.
White guys. And I have no clue how to bridge the gap, I think the best way is to point out the deficiencies in McCain's plans and his closeness to George Bush ( at least for the past 7 years or so). But I don't think that anything he does will sway the majority of them, if Obama is going to be successful, he needs a large turnout from his key demographics and maybe swing a few white guys who are on the fence.
They vote for the Republican candidate in every election by a staggering margin of close to 85% over the Dem opponent, that they skew the national numbers to make it appear that white males are overwhelmingly Republican, when in fact they are pretty much 50/50 everywhere else.
Under-educated, under-employed, well-educated, and well-employed whites who dislike and/or distrust Blacks and Browns.
Thats absurd same can than be said for Obama supporters just change race .
I think its the Harriet Christians of the Dem party who are White college educated women who are not solid in Obama camp .
