Barack Obama’s overall lead against John McCain is 50 - 41 percent in the latest Quinnipiac poll. The majority of his support is among women (55 - 36%) and young voters (63-31%), with unanimous numbers from blacks (94 – 1%).

The presumed Democratic presidential candidate also racks up an impressive lead in purple and swing states (50 – 39%), of which many on Slate claimed Obama would not capture. John McCain takes a slight lead among men (47 - 44%) and greater margin among caucasian voters (49 – 42%). This is understandable, considering that 3 in 10 white voters admit to some level of racial prejudice.

The number of black supporters doesn't look good for Obama in the public eye.

It's going to be an interesting election. The aftermath can be a ""riot".

So when you say "public eye", you mean those racist voters who only look at Obama's blackness (He is fifty percent white, you know). You've been out on that boat too long, TickleBob.

What percentage of black voters admit to some level of racial prejudice?

There is the answer to your first question to me. This is exactly what I meant. Now you are doing it.

The opposite is more probable. It's likley to be the black community rioting over an Obama loss. If it comes to a real close race, the flack we wittnesed in Florida 2000 will be child's play.
