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.

Funny stuff. The Party wing of political correctness and multiculturalism is splid open like a ripe melon along racial lines.

There are at least 3 variables that should be considered:

- the election is not set for tomorrow
- the Hillary supporters are currently the losers and therefore bitter
- the way the question was asked (other 'polls' showed that over 70% of Hillary's voters were happy with Obama as the demo guy)

This looks a lot like grasping at straws.

I watched Larry Davis on CNN last night and he was so funny, in a pathetic way, trying to spin reality for Hillary.

By the way, JT, you posted yesterday, from some 'source' that Obama got only 7% of the White vote. Do you now agree that what you posted was FUD? I'm not saying that it was your FUD but you did channel someone else's. Yes?

This was the point MSNBC was making. I don't know how else to do the math; 9 out of 10 black Ds voted for Obama.

The problem for Obama is threefold, as I see it:

- guns (again)

- the feminist subset of the socialist Party

- White backlash related to the slavery guilt industry.

OMG!!! :)))

It's not that 91% of all Obama's vote was Black. What they say is that 92% of Blacks voted for Obama. But Blacks only make up 1/3 of NC's Demos. This translates in Obama's Black vote being 91% of the 33% (who are Black).

It's 0.91 * 0.33 * 100 = 30%

Since Obama got 56% of the total vote, the remaining 26% was from non-Blacks.

The percentage of Whites voting for Obama is calculating like so:

67% (of White voters in NC) * P (the percentage of them that voted for Obama) = 26% (the White or non-Black share of Obama's votes)

67 * P = 26
P = 26/67
P = 39

39% of non-Blacks in NC voted for Obama

I hope that this clarifies it. I think I'll make this the daily math challenge for my 5th and 5th graders tonite.

- the feminist subset of the socialist Party

The Republican party has clearly shown over the last eight years that they are much closer to being Nazis than the Democrat party has ever gotten to Socialism/Communism, yet this 3/4 century slur persists while the plutocrats get a free pass.

Bewildering?

Not in my opinion ... it simply illustrates the level of debate that the those of the die-hard GOP stripe are capable of.
