Romney not gaining traction With African Americans - 0% in latest poll (NBC/WSJ)

[Cowlesy]

I was hoping he'd at least get 1-2%. 94% for Obama, so 6% unsure. Margin of error +/- 3.1 points.

So, with a margin of error of 0%, it's possible that its even worse than zero. :D

[TheTexan]

Zero is actually quite an impressive number

Oh MAN! That is some funny stuff right there. I'm trying to come up with a way to describe just how extemely un-funky Mitt Romeny is but words fail me.

My favorite is still when he commented on some random office worker's lava lamp. "That's a nice lava lamp. Big one. Congratulations."

[Bastiat's The Law]

He's doing poorly with Hispanics and women as well.

[Bruno]

He has flip flopped on so many other things, he should add skin color to his list.

[aGameOfThrones]

0%? That's racist!!!

[specsaregood]

He's doing poorly with Hispanics and women as well.

I don't see any reason that somebody of any color or gender should vote for him, so a zero across the board seems reasonable.

[Anti Federalist]

ROFL - 94 % to 0 %...that's rich, it really is.

Inane. He's an inane puppet.

He really has absolutely no charisma. I would not hesitate to work for him in the private sector, because he doesn't come across as a total dick, but nobody is ever going to describe him as flamboyant, that's for sure.

[oyarde]

0%? That's racist!!! Sadly , yes , clearly it is :) , consider that most African Americans who are devout Christians would not share the Presidents positions on unborn babies or marriage.......

LOL - years ago, I'm afraid. I meant to say that with a margin of error of +/- 3.1 pts, he could be at less than zero.

I think that's why Palin doesn't annoy me. My mind races ahead like hers seems to. Half the crap I type is missing key words the first time out.

[BlackTerrel]

Doesn't shock me at all. It's not really zero but wouldn't shock me if it didn't reach 1%. The guy has nothing going for him at all.

There's no racial component to this, ludicrous, number?

Romney did himself no favors by siding with the racists in his church and school when he was in college. just saying... That is going to get hit on, a lot.

Yes, thats exactly what I'm doing. Are you white? Do you vote for people based on skin color? I'd vote for a purple elephant for president if they really supported sound money.

I'd crawl over razor blades to vote for William Grigg for POTUS, for example.

[hardrightedge]

I don't give a shit about color...I wanted Ron Paul to get the nomination, but that's not going to happen...Now what?

[emazur]

I remember Romney got about 90% of the Mormon vote in Nevada and nationwide and nationwide gets 84%.

[specsaregood]

I don't give a shit about color...I wanted Ron Paul to get the nomination, but that's not going to happen...Now what?

Now we move on. Simple fact is, Romney offers no real reason for anybody to vote for him over Obama. so if you take out any fake policy differences, why shouldn't blacks for for obama based on race? It is just as valid a superficial reason as any other. Then you throw in the history I mentioned with Romney not even taking a stand against racism when he was young and you are supposed to care about that stuff and zero percent should probably be expected.

[Anti Federalist]

Just as ridiculous AFAIC

[trey4sports]

lmfao

[torchbearer]

lulz

[alucard13mmfmj]

i hate to say it.. but romney is White, Mormon and born to a rich family. He has nothing in common with african-americans.

its also sad to say that a lot of people vote based on what the candidate is.. not who the candidate is.

But Palin is actually kinda dumb, you aren't.

On the contrary, she is so smart that she is thinking on a whole other plane than most of you.

Polls are showing that's changing since Obama announced a new position on gay marriage.

Lets be sure to rub the Romney delegates noses in this. And bring up this:

http://dailycaller.com/2011/12/22/poll-ron-paul-would-fare-best-against-obama-among-non-white-voters/


Poll: Ron Paul would fare best against Obama among non-white voters

A poll released Tuesday found that in head-to-head election match-ups between President Barack Obama and various Republican presidential candidates, Texas Rep. Ron Paul fared best among non-white voters.

[jmdrake]

So you're voting for Romney? :rolleyes: Put Bill Clinton up against Alan Keyes in a race and see if black people vote for the black candidate.

[fatjohn]

Black people are racist, mkay.

[Tudo]

Throw some money and benefits around, he'll get some votes.

Integrity need not apply. Money talks

If you were hoping for a free and fair election you picked the wrong place. :(

[RonPaulFanInGA]

He's doing poorly with Hispanics and women as well.

And yet, it's a close race. It's almost as if groups other than blacks, Hispanics, homosexuals and women can vote. You wouldn't know that listening to the media.

94% is ridiculous. You can't get 94% of people to agree the sky is blue on a clear day. If it was 94% of whites for Romney, it'd be labeled racist.

[Liberty74]

http://www.mediaite.com/online/romney-has-zero-percent-support-from-african-americans-in-new-nbcwsj-poll/

Latest Fox poll has Romney getting 6% of the black vote. Also has Romney getting 10 plus points more with Indy voters. Obama won that group with 54% in 2008 yet is only polling 32% of them this time around. Also, Obama who won big with the youth vote is struggling below 50% range this time around.

So do you honestly believe that this person:

would get more black votes than this person:

That is just sickening. How can African Americans fall for this herd mentality? It might as well be 100 freaking percent for Obama. I can't believe this shit.

[angelatc]

LOL - David Duke got 6% of the black vote in Louisiana. :D

[PaulConventionWV]

He's doing poorly with Hispanics and women as well.

Women too? But, but... how can they not love that hair?

[erowe1]

What do you mean, "not gaining traction"?

0% is twice as much as he had a week ago.

[PaulConventionWV]

I wouldn't. Because my vote doesn't matter.

[PaulConventionWV]

Careful. If you call black people racist, you may get labeled as a racist.

[Brian4Liberty]

... Hell, maybe obama should try to get the elections postponed to next summer and get a better chance of pulling in the jersey shore vote since they are about as dark as him.

Whatchu talkin bout Willis?

Romney will get 94% of the Mormon vote, probably more.

[alucard13mmfmj]

So which group is Romney doing exceptionally well with???

Besides Mormons?

[BlackTerrel]

There's no racial component to this, ludicrous, number?

Of course there is. So what? Are you going to argue that blacks would benefit somehow by supporting Romney.

By the way Herman Cain likely got 0% of the black vote as well.

[juleswin]

Black people vote D the same way evangelicals vote R. Its sad but that just the way it is. Him being black will probably get him an extra 1-2% and nothing more. Ah, maybe a higher turnout than a non black D would have gotten.

[oyarde]

Romney will get 94% of the Mormon vote, probably more. Probably , less ,Johnson and that retread Congressman the Constitution Party has will pull more than 6 and , seriously what percentage of Morman women vote ? and what percentage of US voters are Mormon ?

[oyarde]

Besides Mormons? Males , with jobs , who actually pay Federal tax , best I can tell from looking at polling data , the people that pay for the free shit for others....

Oh yea, people like Goldman Sachs workers, Bank of America, Soldiers aka govt workers, and finally people stupid enough to think there is a difference between the 2 camps. That is who will be voting for Obamney come Nov.

lol, People with jobs :)

[juleswin]

And its not for the right reasons though. Its only because he is white and republican. Blacks are the most racist people in America, hands down. That being said Romney can sleep safe at night knowing that at least Herman Cain will vote for him.

Thomas Sowell too. If his completely ass kissing columns the last 2 years are any indication, he would be slobbering just thinking about voting for Romney

[oyarde]

lol, People with jobs :) I doubt most 18 yr olds overseas vote , union job holders will vote Dem , others , who are not female etc will not , I somehow , also doubt Goldman Sachs workers or BOA workers give a shit , I suspect you may have your demographics wrong ,most intelligent people who are aware of all the theft & fuckery in the health bill would still like it repealed before they have to start paying more ( avg of a few hundred to a few thousand per person ), this makes the Senate elections most important ... yeah , I , personally , do not see a fantastic difference between the two , socialist against the marxist ...

[oyarde]

Thats true, I know a few of them who have actually gone back into the private work force, but they still fight for govt benefits like most people in the take and thats the point I was trying to make.

Btw I do respect the heck out of soldier because theirjob is a danger that I brave enough to put my self through.

[ZenBowman]

So you're voting for Romney? :rolleyes: Put Bill Clinton up against Alan Keyes in a race and see if black people vote for the black candidate.

This.

If blacks voted for Keyes over Clinton then there might be some truth to the idea that they are voting based on race.

[RonPaulFanInGA]

So you're voting for Romney? :rolleyes: Put Bill Clinton up against Alan Keyes in a race and see if black people vote for the black candidate.

You're right. Black people seem more shackled to the Democratic Party than anything else, as evidenced by the 88%+ the Democrats always get in national elections from blacks.

A black Republican against a white Democrat would just bring about the 'Uncle Tom' and 'Oreo' labels.
