Yes its so obvious that its *conservatives* who use race as a wedge issue as proven by the number of times liberals bring up race to tall us how racist the white race baiting racially motivated conservatives are.

Who said anything about racism?

In fact, here's the black Romney supporter--

Given the thread title, I thought there was going to be at least one tweet/facebook post referencing the color of Romney's or Obama's skin. But nary one was found.

I don't disagree that the GOP needs to do a better job appealing to ethnic voters. But with few exceptions, race card throwing and race-bait politics are the domain of the Left. It's no contest. And for 4 years, the media meme has been the oft-repeated charge of a "violent and racist" Tea Party, yet very few examples are provided (and ironic in the face of the unrest, vandalism and outright violence seen in Occupy protests, protests that are treated respectfully - and often downright sympathetic - by the media). Disagree with the TP's politics if you want, but it's been amusing hearing the "say it enough times and it'll become 'truth'" charges.

I didn't vote GOP because Romney was a flip-flopping empty suit short on details, not to mention there's truth in that the social wing needs moderation or a libertarian flavor for me to become more "excited" about Republican candidtaes. But the left's incessent use of race warfare and class warfare as Go-To planks is nauseating in itself.

I do wonder out of all the people who voted Obama.. How many could point out Mitt Romney in a line up?

And I'd like to ask him how many times he's been insulted as a "sell out", "Uncle Tom," etc, among more liberal circles.

That's the Irony of how it works: Criticize the GOP for not having enough people of color among their voters, but publicly rebuke the ones that do tread into conservative land.

The man looks like he's from TX.. I'm pretty sure I know what he'd tell those who say that to him.

Yes. I signed the petition for secession. I am a traitor.

Jesus, that Tumblr isn't about race or racism. It's about Romney voters' (who are overwhelmingly white) hilarious reactions to the election. It's fun to make fun of white people because they're an easy, politically correct target, and the subset of Romney voters even moreso.

Liberal hypocrisy at it's finest.

It's fun to make fun of liberals because they're dumb.

How is it hypocritical exactly?

Get me a county breakdown.

Then get me a breakdown of how those people voted.

Has anyone done less with a law degree than Max? Is this what you went to law school for Max?

I does not surprise me that it breaks down this way. College often give white guilts a chance to settle in.

If you';re a minority you learn is all the white mans fault. If you're white you learn its all your fault..

And Max, its hard to believe you could show less grace after the election than you did before it, but I've learned never underestimate your ability to be a prick.

Your title had racial implications...

Every election cycle, some IQ/degree chart gets trotted out.

Being swaddled in Ivy League academia with a wall full of degrees doesn't necessarily mean you have a firmer grasp on what constitute the best governance than a high school grad Indiana small business owner. To wit, think of the worst and most oppressive leaders/dictators through the decades. Dollars to donuts, I'd say the vast majority are well-read, articulate, and went to a highly respected university in their country. Hell, the 9/11 hijackers were bright, not to mention the high level of education the Aurora, CO, theater shooter possesses.

I don't know where to find county breakdowns for college degrees and votes. This is probably the best information we have.
