Yeah, as we all know, the Wall Street Journal is a bastion of liberalism. lol

Wait, is the WSJ owned by Rupert Murdoch?

That lets FauxNews off the hook.


Seriously...you strike me as intelligent...do you honestly believe NO blacks support Mr. Romney? Seriously?

Be honest LJ. :biggrin:

Another thought. I realize that there is a large percentage of blacks who support the President. Is it because his policies are that great and successful or is it BECAUSE he is black.

Imagine if I went to the polls this November and voted for a candidate solely because of the color of their skin. What would that make me?

Sorry but I just couldn't get past the NBC News involvement. Once I saw that my alarms started going off. Unlike news agencies like NBC, the WSJ will at least offer other opinions. Also...they tend to place opinion in the editorial collumn and not on the front page like the Los Angeles Times. What do they call it? An editorial masquerading as a new article?

Your reading-comprehension problem is starting to worry me...Are you okay?

Raees wrote: "The numbers came from a statistically significant sample of more than 100 African-American voters out of 1,000 total voters in the poll," NBC News senior political editor Mark Murray told Lean Forward. "Given the sample size of these African-American respondents, the margin of error is well within the 95 percent-5 percent split with which Obama won this group in 2008."

In other words, none of the roughly 110 black respondents to this poll said they would support Romney. The poll should not be taken to mean that Romney has no African American supporters at all. However, at the very most, he has far fewer than Obama.


I agree with Raees...Nobody believes that there are NO supporters...But their statistical insignificance should start worrying the GOP pollsters...

Also interesting this morning: Hispanics support Obama 63% to 28% ... Good luck with that.

They're losing women at a horrendous clip, and they can forget about the LGBT community....

How's that "bat-sh*t-crazy as a platform" thing workin' out for ya? :biggrin:

Romney: "Is there any other group we can alienate before November?"

I would have to ask the same about the current bat sh_t program serving us in Washington D.C. today? I don't think the current one is working well at all. I feel it's killing America slowly like a cancer. I understand that my party has some crazies on the fringe (I won't go there with the Dems) but all in all I feel it has the country's best interest in mind.

What's going on now is nothing short of scary to me...and I don't scare easily. Guess we will see in November. Perhaps the crazies will succeed in getting this ass clown re-elected. If we do, the Nation is heading for the crapper.

As for my reading comprehension LJ, I understand that people like you need to make others feel stupid to feel good about yourself so I'm going to let that one go. But I do understand the who ego thing when it comes to people like you. :lol:

All I see is the title of this thread-"Poll shows 0% support for Romney among African Americans"

I'm certain it's not 0% and I'm betting it's a much larger number. I would say the poll is faulty.

The good thing is we both get to believe what we want. It's okay.

Only in the US is Rupert Murdoch associated with conservative news. Primarily he is a businessman and saw a niche of the market that was tired of biased liberal news.

But back on topic, I think Dems are going to be surprised by some of these polls once the votes are tallied. See the latest Gallup that has Mitt a couple points ahead of Barack?

Thomas Sowell: There are no solutions, just trade-offs.

Or...

Primarily he is a businessman and saw a niche of the market that wanted biased conservative news.
