Post Debate Polls in, Does Anyone but the most delusional still support McPalin?

"Yeah, but you know that of those "lost" votes, 99% of them are too lazy to get off their asses and actually do it (vote)."

SH: Nonsense. A significant percentage of the active Democratic and independent parties in Florida are black and brown voters.



To your other point, the right to vote is something justifiably lost when one is convicted of a felony. Sorry, but that makes sense.

SH: Only in three states of the USA. 47 states have sensibly removed the archaic racist laws which formerly blocked convicted felons from voting even after they successfully served their court ordered sentencing.

Why are people up in arms about african americans supporting the democratic nominee.....it's not usually 95% but it's high. I think it was high 80s for Kerry.

So that 7-8% of 11% of the voting population (based on 2004 #'s) he gains for being black.....something tells me he's losing more votes than he's gaining because of the color of his skin.

Some people support candidates and parties on ideological
principles, and not poll numbers.

hno:

Yep...and it seems like many of those people are going to vote for Obama.

Yeah, so?

The thread title implied that people should stop supporting McCain/Palin
because of the poll numbers. That is simply asinine.

People should vote the issues, not according to polling results.

We'd love to have the black voters carry the water, but in the state of Florida, over 1/3 of voter-age blacks are not permitted to vote due to archaic laws restricting convicted felons from voting.

That leaves us with about 400,000 black voters out of what should be about 6 million votes statewide in the upcoming general election.

given your numbers from your home state as you list them, that means BO gets a 360,000 plurality from those mere 400,000 voters, or a 6% bump (a/k/a the difference in every tossup state).

I believe that the AA vote will be more than 6.5% of the total vote in FL.

This VP debate will even the score. The mainstream media have been dissing Palin ever since she came out of Alaska like a lightning bolt from the sky.

The people will see the real Sarah tommorrow night, she'll carve up poor old Joe like she used to field dress moose.

Even Keith Overbite & Chris Matthews will have to admit Sarah stripped Biden of whiskers & hope.

If a debate for high office ever had a clear winner it was never more clear than Sarah Palin winning performance tonight. She may have not stripped poor old Joe of whiskers and hope, but thru an ability uniquely her own she obviously was the most effective on the podium tonight.

For all those who tuned into the Obama station MSNBC to watch the debate I'd like to know who Keith Overbearing thought was the most effective debater? Even Overbearing must have had to concede Palin was brilliant!
