And as Indy and Pad have both pointed out, it's a pretty bad analogy to begin with. Quote:
Breaking away from numbers for a while, let's keep in mind that Bush has elevated blacks to some of the highest offices in the land, including two secretaries of state in a row. The only black man on the Supreme Court was appointed by a Republican. Yet the NAACP types routinely lampoon these folks as "not really black." And they run campaign ads suggesting Bush has committed offenses against black folk commensurate with the chain-dragging death of James Byrd. With such as their attitude, I'm happy to see the candidates turn a cold shoulder to such a nakedly partisan organization. Last edited by Tex; 07-16-2007 at 04:16 PM. |

That such efforts have been criticized underlies their reasons for not doing what you are criticizing them for. |

It depends on what the purpose is. If it is solely to get votes, then you are right. If it is to send a message that the people you are visiting are important, then you are absolutely wrong.

Your link didn't back up your contention. In fact, you admitted as such, then you made a new contention. It IS your problem that your data doesn't support your statement. I haven't made any such statements. If you can't support your statement, don't blame me for not supporting it for you. If you haven't conceded anything, then I eagerly await proof that blacks vote more as a demographic than ANY OTHER DEMOGRAPHIC, including, as you noted, religion, age and race. Good hunting. I really enjoy your claim that the Republicans aren't doing more with blacks because they have been criticized. Classic. Who knew they were such a sensitive bunch? Isn't there a kids story about a sensitive elephant? |

It's really too bad that CNN's exit polls don't track idiot California lawyers. I think they probably have a more uniform voting pattern than even blacks.
