There’s some discussion on the net about whether Barack Obama’s defeat in Kenturcky really means a whole lot. Clinton supporters, obviously, think it means something. But Clinton’s Kentucky win was so lopsided because of one issue: race.
Obama’s problem was with these white voters overall. His greatest losses among whites, by 40 points or more, all have been in Southern states – Arkansas, Kentucky, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee and West Virginia. Reflecting their discomfort with Obama, nearly half of Kentucky Democrats said they would not support him in a November election against John McCain, again similar to the result in West Virginia.
Look at Kentucky. This is a state whose Democrats won’t back their own party’s candidate because he’s a black man. So Obama will lose big in Kentucky in a matchup against John McCain. But Hillary Clinton won’t win there either. Why not? Racism and sexism are often traveling companions.
Naked women and the Confederate flag. Yee haw! This kind of voter will just as easily turn out against Clinton as against Obama when the opponent is a white guy.
Nice “Gun Show” billboard up there… 🙂
Would it surprise you if I said I took that picture yesterday on my way home from work?
Not at all… I’m actually surprised he’s missing the trailer hitch and has no “truck nuts” in place if it.
