Well Obama hasn't helped. So maybe it's males in general, white or otherwise. Either way, you make an empirically sound argument, though I certainly hope there is no actual causal link there.

Ok, those of you who responded to my post have made valid points. I still don't like all the identity politics we play, but still. I think you're comparison to African-Americas voting Democrat was valid because you don't ever hear the media talk about Romney's problem with blacks as that is indeed given for any Republican. I think my larger point though, is that you never hear the media talk about groups Obama is doing poorly with. Even if those groups have always been the majority or whatever, it still seems like all you hear about is how Romney is doing poorly with all these different groups while ignoring the fact that Obama is losing the largest demographic in the country.
