I have to wonder if the Black voters are really still that enthusiastic, or just think they have a duty to appear so. The proof will be in their turnout levels in the 2012 election. I'll be interested also to see whether Obama can rally the youth vote the way he did in 2008. My sense is a lot of the younger voters have come to realize that the Hopium of 2008 was a lot of smoke and mirrors.

Another thing to wonder about is the number of Black Democrats who are in the surveys (and Vote,) are getting government subsidies? It's too PC to even mention such a thing....but last time I looked, the Black citizens in this country were 11% of the whole population. If we have 308 Million people in this country, that would put the Blacks at maybe 31 million of the total.... How many of this 31 or so million people support the Dems and how many support the Repubs....? How many are working, and how many vote and how many are on the Government dole. If people are working (normally when times are better) and need help now, that shouldn't be counted. I just would like to see an unscrewed poll.... For so long, it seemed we were finally able to accept people for who they are, not what color they are. But Obama and his cronies in the Adm have changed all that. They are constantly race baiting, and whining about the "middle class people".... What in the heck is the "middle class" these days? Do we have a low class, or a high class? Or is it income they are referring to? And if it is income that determines what the Democrats constantly refer to as "middle class" when they are pandering....MAKE THEM TELL US what income they use to determine "Middle Class".....
