Why McCain Won Article
This article pretty much is saying that if Obama loses next Tuesday, it is because Americans are racist. It goes through, state by state, and explains what a McCain victory could be attributed to. Not every reason is because of racism, but that is the overwhelming idea.
I’m just curious- do people agree? If McCain wins on election day, is it because too many Americans are still blinded by race?
Disagree. I think there are plenty of reasons to vote for either candidate on their own merits and views. They are both quite different on a variety of issues, and not even necissarily split along party lines. The trouble is, we can only have one president, so if you agree with Obama (or McCain) on 51% of issues, that’s your vote. Doesn’t mean you don’t agree with 49% of what the other candidate thinks, or even that you support the other 50% of your own candidate’s issues. But in the end, you have to vote for someone.
I wish Americans wouldn’t be so quick to pidgeonhole a person based on their vote. (ie. if you vote for McCain, you’re racist - or, if you vote for Obama, you’re a socialist, etc)

There is as much or more evidence of a reverse Bradley effect as there is for the normal variety. I find this article...

I think it’s more about intelligence than race. In my opinion, if you vote for McCain, you’re an idiot.
