Some pundsters have remarked that they believe that Obama must have at least a 5% lead going into election day, because a lot of people's latent racism will cause their hand to shift from Obama to McCan't when they realize they are about to vote for a biracial presidential candidate.
I don't believe that, but even if its true, looks like he has his 5% racism margin.
I'm thinking that 8 years of Bush, the Iraq/Afghanistan fiasco, and the current financial crisis may have stacked the deck so much that even a half-black, magna cum laude Harvard Law School graduate could get elected president.
I think the 5% racist margin is nonsense. The people who would not for a black guy because he's black were always going to vote Republican and Republican only anyway. Obama doesn't have to worry about the racist vote, because Democrats never get that vote anyway.
Very glad to see this gap widen. (And OK, I'm a big Obama supporter, but that picture reminds me of Yul Brynner in the movie Westworld.)
