like women, Hispanics, gays and lesbians, Democrats, unions et al doesn't really
help your support. I still find it hard to believe people still vote for Republicans
in any numbers at all.

I'll bet this "brother" is still crying in his beer!

...Book it: Romney's going to win this election in a romp come November. I'm certain of this because there is a key factor that's being overlooked this time around -- blacks have lost their passion for Obama.

I see that loss reflected in the faces of my fellow blacks, who at the mention of Obama's name no longer beam with rapturous joy -- something we blacks normally reserve for winning lottery tickets and intimate getaways with persons not our spouses. As the saying went in the 'hood where I grew up: "If he looks happy, he's either hit the number or he's cheating."


By the way, we're kind of doubtful this anonymous "former journalist" was a journalist or is actually black. But you never know!
