Even though Obama is ahead nationally by 6-9%, he is behind by 35% among Southern Whites.  This may be the saddest part of the election.   Racism, among Southern Whites, is the only explanation.

Equally disturbing among the Southern Whites is what they will dismiss in order to privilege their racism. Forget about lower taxes for 95% of the people, improved health care, better education, and more populist policies.  Instead, Southern Whites declare that they cannot vote for a black man, no matter how smart and educated he is, no matter that his mother was white.  Instead, the one drop of black blood rules in the South.

It is also interesting that the South is the most religious part of the country — Southern Baptists are the biggest Protestant denomination.  No wonder that the Southern Baptists were founded because of their pro-slavery views.  The hypocrisy is nauseating.

America is doomed.
