Thanks in part to Rush Limbaugh and his loyal listeners, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are still battling as liberals search their souls over the question of whether they are more racist than they are sexist, or vice versa. So far the racists have the nod.
Now I would never vote for either Clinton or Obama, but it has nothing to do with gender or race. I just don’t tend to vote for brain-dead liberals who are barely qualified to run for a local school board seat. But give me Condi Rice and I’d vote for her in a heartbeat over any of the three candidates we have to “choose” from.
Yesterday’s results in Mississippi mirrored results in most of the other states we’ve seen recently, which are downright frightening. 40 % of blacks said race was a key factor in their decision, compared to 23% of whites. 90% of blacks voted for Obama, 74% of whites for Clinton. Obama won 60/40 among people who said race was a factor. Nationally, Obama is winning 80% of the black vote, while Hillary is winning just 53% of the white vote.
Also, you have to factor in the 8% of Democratic primary voters who are registered Republicans. Rush Limbaugh’s chaos strategy, termed “Rush the Vote” by some in the media, has certainly resulted in more white voters voting for Hillary than would otherwise be the case. So we see that blacks are more likely than whites (even in the deep South) to base their votes on race. Or as we would call it in less PC days, liberal blacks are bigger racists than liberal whites.
On to gender. Nationally, Clinton beats Obama 50-45 among women, while Obama wins 53-40 among men. So it appears as if liberal men are slightly more sexist than liberal women, until you figure in the fact than Obama receives over 80% of the black woman vote. Accounting for that, I’d guess the men and women are pretty equally sexist.
Back to Limbaugh, his strategy of encouraging listeners to vote for Clinton in order to keep the Democrat race going was pure genious. Clinton and Obama are destroying each other, and spending loads of money that the eventually winner would have had to spend against McCain.
