I was over at my brother-in-law's home yesterday (he is black). His parents were there watching the basketball game. A commercial came on that showed Romney. Thomas (my BIL's Dad) said that he doubted that he would get even one vote. I laughed and said "oh, he'll get at least one vote, mine". There were astonished that I would even consider voting for Romney. They are both convinced that it will be an overwhelming landslide in favor of Obama. I bet him $20 that Romney would win. When he kept on going on about the landslide win for Obama, I asked for odds. He wouldn't give me odds on the bet...LOL

Van Jones is right. Obama has the black vote locked down. He could shoot Jon Stewart on live TV and he'd still get 90% of the black vote and most of the hard left vote.

The problems will arise when their guy, who they are convinced will win by an overwhelming landslide, loses. They will be convinced that the election was stolen. My BIL is actually more independent and where he doesn't trust republicans, he thinks that democrats are idiots too.
