Here we go again, it's so hard for you Nobama supporters to believe that anyone doesn't feel this man is the right fit for this country, so anyone that doesn't worship this man as you do is automatically a racist?
All these race baiters need to do is look at presidential election history to find the answer.
When was the last time a democrat was elected with a majority of the vote?
When was the last time a democrat was elected with a majority of the white vote?
When was the last time a liberal democrat was elected?
I live in Long Island, NY...with the majority of my fellow white male acquaintances it has a lot to do with race.
"Mayor Dinkins sucked, and let all of those people take the city over...so you know, with Obama...(eyebrows arching)." Or they simply say "come on, you are going to vote for the black guy?"
I find it naive to think this is a very small minority. I hear the cracks all the time, I suppose on the assumption because I am a white guy in the corporate world I most likely think the same way too...and it's not like I am hanging out with some hillbilly radicals. I am not some extremist Obama supporter...I would have voted for the 2000 McCain. But race is factoring a great deal into this election. What makes me chuckle are those that post things like "I view him as white really, not even black", and are doing so as some sort of knock against him. He is often criticized for being of both races...guy can't win. But again, very small minority is an understatement. People do have legitimate issues with his experience level, and that is fine. But I will only buy that person's sincerity if they can honestly say they have NEVER told a black joke in their lifetime and/or laughed at one without criticism.
I don't trust Obama. He's gone back on too many promises he's made. FISA. Yep, he voted for it after making a huge stink. Lobbyist money, only if they aren't registered. And the bailout. He and McCain both wasted what could potentially be $1.3 trillion US taxpayer dollars on nothing. Go Obama! He's like, so different and such as.
McCain railed against the bailout and the majority of the Republicans opposed it, yet he voted for it. Now he's saying Bush should veto the bailout bill that he voted for. However, you're trusting him
McCain railed against the bailout and then went against the majority of Republicans when he voted for the bailout but you're still trusting him. Now he's saying Bush should veto the bailout bill that he voted for.
"I don't like to assume that people are as dumb as their comments"
And not even 5 minutes before
"Most of every subcategory is voting for Obama, except for one: rich greedy white people."
But by all means keep on I'm having a nice laugh.
I'll keep it up. Obviously you intend to keep ignoring my question. Explain why my statement was ironic. Or even just define the term in your own words.
Are you capable of only throwing insults? Or can you explain your comments at the same time, too?

Thank you for this. I'm getting rather tired of the "oh, it's only a handful of people" line, and this is also coming from someone who liked McCain 2000 as well. Anyway, I'm sure the "minute number of racists" will magically multiply come Election day.
