Black vote seen as last hope for democrats to hold senate

[Proactive]

Personally I think it is a done deal, republicans will take the senate.

Yep, I get genius - has nothing to do with race, just demographics, ethnic, religious groups and genders... and yes, it's called politics - that most of us wouldn't even think of getting involved in because it has nothing to do with anything most of us would have any reason to be involved in..

So I stand "misguided"... NOT...

What a genius...

Never ceases to amaze me how it's always someone else who is the "misguided" one...

"Why are they concentrating on the blacks?  That is racist... "

Good question...  You're right, it IS racist and pretty sad to think that one ethnic group can make or break an entire political party...


You aren't serious - are you?
Yeah, you probably are....but very misguided.

Appealing to a certain demographic or ethnic groups or religious groups or gender is in a word "POLITICS"!

I'm guessing that they might be concentrating on blacks because many of the Hispanics are here illegally and of course, some of them aren't even here yet and with all the "to do" over ID's - well, you know ...lol

I can tell you what its like to vote for someone and not against someone.  You won't like that outcome either. Be careful for what you wish for.  I have a small sneaky suspicion that some folks really, really know what I am talking about.
