Conservative vs Liberal. You see it within states and that does not make it racism.

But you and your ilk assume anytime someone disagrees with dear leader it must be racism..

I don't assume it's always racism. But has the South always been this in the tank for a Republican nominee?

Ummm what?

So what youre saying is that a region of the nation that have voted very, very, republican since 1980 swung huge in favor of the first Black democrat the dems put up in 2008 and now they are racist for returning to their normal voting patterns?

Really?

RE: White southerners hate Obama, why?
I'm a white Southerner (native New Yorker, living in Texas for 26 years).

I dislike Obama because he's steering this country away from the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. He's taking the greatest country the world has ever known and turning it into Belgium. If Russia or China planted a secret agent in the presidency, that person couldn't do any more harm to the U.S. than what Obama has done.

Gun running.
Not removing Eric Holder for gun running.

Why do you hate poor Mexicans murdered with weapons purchased by the US gov't and given to drug cartels over a drug war caused by US drug policy?

Why do you hate murdered border patrol agents killed with weapons purchased by the US gov't and given to drug cartels?

It's what then? Minorities? But the minorities aren't voting out of hate (they're pro-Obama, not so much anti-Romney), and actually have policy reasons to vote for him

The hypocrisy is outstanding. :clap2:

That's not hypocrisy.

max, you don't know what the word "liar" means, so it's not a surprise that you don't know what a big word like "hypocrisy" means.

Max.. You're an idiot. Your poll is stupid. If you slap a CoExist sticker on my truck, I'm gonna slap you with a lawsuit for defacing private property and if you weasel out of that, I'll just slap you with my pimp hand.

It would improve your truck. But I am not so sure a lawsuit is what he would have to worry about. It is the gun rack in the back of your truck.

RE: White southerners hate Obama, why?
Max is at his antagonizing best with polls like this "white southerners" crock of 01-scout.

Romney is extending his lead in several states and Gallup has him up overall. This is a tight race and the Dems/libs are sweating. The Miami debate will be on international issues and we will hear Romney bring up these failures and school Obama on them:
- Benghazi and why security was pulled right before the terrorist attacks
- Fast & Furious and why Holder is still employed as USAG
- ignoring Netanyahu and failing to visit Israel in 1st term
- Iran's growing nuclear threat
- Syria
- China and its trade inequity; why tolerate it?

These and other international snafus that have earmarked the Obama Administration as incompetent.

Why not go look back at the past elections most if not all of the cases the black vote was in the same range for the white Democrat in the running. It is party voting not racial outside maybe a few percent at most.

Can't you say the same thing about southerners voting for a liberal?

Well, the southerners used to vote Democrat until the party went anti-slavery and anti-segregation and the Republicans took up that opposite.

No. The hate is especially strong from South Carolina to Texas for this one. I suspect that their are a lot of things in play besides racism.

1.) the neo-republican party is one that champions traditional white southern values by making scapegoats of blacks and Hispanics. Historically these values have included land, church, strong local governments, social caste systems and the virtues white womanhood.
2.) The concept of Obama (no so much the real man) threatens all of this. He's characterized as a foreign, black, radical muslim that wants to take your stuff.
3.) If Obama succeeds it will fly in the face of many of the beliefs held in this part of the country. Blacks are suppose to be of a lower class. Obama threatens to empower the nearly 26 blacks living in the south. His "Muslim" name is a direct threat to Christianity. His liberal views threaten conservative dogma. His desire to level the playing field threatens the many built in advantages of white southerners.
4.) Obama's confidence rubs this group the wrong way. Really any black man that isn't humble is a problem. Pick any black sports figure or entertainer that has some swagger, look at how they are covered by southern conservatives.
5.) Obama doesn't neatly fit into any box so it's easy to add things onto him like that he wants to kill newborns, born in Kenya, take away your guns, date your daughter, etc.
