Found 11 hours, 53 minutes, and 8 seconds ago on politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com Hillary Clinton takes a picture with supporters in Indiana. (CNN) -- Just how badly is the Democratic Party divided? According to the exit polls, half of Clinton's supporters in Indiana would not vote for Obama in a general election match up with John McCain. ... Schneider: The troubling racial divide continues Posted: 07:42 PM ET A man votes in Wilmington, North Carolina. (CNN) – It’s the mirror image of Barack Obama’s white working class voter problem – Hillary Clinton’s continuing troubles with black Democrats. Obama pulled in 78 percent of the black vote in South Carolina’s January contest, 84 percent in Missouri’s February vote, 87 percent in Ohio’s March 4 primary and 90 percent in Pennsylvania last month. Tuesday night, he pulled in 91 percent of North Carolina’s black primary voters, and 92 percent of Indiana’s, according to early exit polls – numbers that would pose a major challenge for any Democratic White House hopeful. Schneider: White working-class voters stick with Clinton Posted: 07:29 PM ET Voters cast their ballots in Indianapolis. (CNN) — Barack Obama’s troubles with white working class voters continue to cost him dearly at the polls: Hillary Clinton captured the votes of two-thirds of Indiana voters who lack a college degree; the two split the white college-educated vote. Clinton’s push for the gun vote seems to have paid off: half the state’s Democratic primary voters are gun owners, according to early exit polls, they supported Clinton over Obama, 61 to 39 percent.
Poster Comment: Funny stuff. The Party wing of political correctness and multiculturalism is splid open like a ripe melon along racial lines.

What's going to be even funnier is when all the white geezers either sit it out or vote for McPain. Then, a few months after he takes the oath of office (if he's still breathing), many of these near-destitute, hyperinflation-destroyed "seniors" will be faced with researching dog and cat food brands for low-cost, edible alternatives to the unaffordable "human food" groceries they used to buy. Meanwhile, McPain will encourage them to make the "ultimate sacrifice" to "support the troops" as Soylent Green.
I agree. Certainly there are a lot of D & R whites that won't vote for Obama because he's black, but there are a lot of R's that will never vote for Hillary either, and a lot of R's and D's that would never vote for Cain. All 3 candidates have substantial voting blocs that would never vote for them. Yes, if Cain were not the R nominee, Obama would have a lot more to worry about.
Apparently, there is some data to show that party members tend to bitch and moan BEFORE the election, then 'come home'. Last night commentators say that that's what happened to W in 2000 and McCain seems to be already bringing home his party.
