Certainly you can find individuals who say they won't vote for any black person, and others who wouldn't say it, but would act on the same feeling (well maybe they would be hard to identify, but they clearly exist). Its not hard to find all sorts of people with all sorts of ideas in a nation with over 300 million.

Its a big stretch from that point to innuendo about Republicans being racist, or statements about the Republican Party depending on racism.

Obama's electoral map doesn't include KY and WVA so it really doesn't matter much what the folks there do this fall. The two combined equal the 13 electoral votes of VA, don't equal the 15 in NC and also fall short of IA and CO combined.

So if they shout, "I'm gonna take my ball and go play somewhere else!" the reply should be, "Have a nice time!"
