Does anyone know how this sector voted in 2008?

NOTE: "White guy" was not my description-- one of the MSNBC hosts said it (I forget who) so please don't take this as an intentional slight. I should have explained that but I was too lazy when I posted it.

1. White guys are a highly overrated group. n/t

12. ++1,000 Just think about who was in charge when all the mess started to blow up!!! nt

[dogknob]

2. As a white guy....

...I'm happy to say that I am not voting for the White Guy.

[JoePhilly]

3. Same here ... the white guy entrants to the Presidential race suck.

They have been embarrassing.

14. Neither is this white guy

I'm proud of my two votes so far for the black man. You can bet your sweet patooie I'll be voting for him again too.
Hopefully at my age I won't have to vote for another white guy for President ever.

16. Great to hear (who you'll be voting for)

...not that you "won't have to vote for another white guy for President ever." But I hope I'm in the same boat because I couldn't stand it if in 2016 some guy even worse than Nitt gets elected. Oh.My.God.

21. That was a little over the top I must agree

My generation was on watch when this shit happened and its largely on my generations back that we're to set things right for our children and grand children and the generations following.

23. What do you mean by set things right?

5. Thanks for the info

Being a Californian (and a proud progessive), I take pride in voting for the Dems!

7. I self-deleted my earlier post in the hopes that this is not meant to slam white guys...

Although I'd like to know what your intent was in posting this.

Are you posting out of serious concern for Obama's re-election hopes, or in order to shame "white guys" on DU for the way assholes like Rush Limbaugh vote..... ?

[MineralMan]

8. Well, I'm an old white guy, and

I support President Obama 100%, and will be campaigning for him vigrously in 2012.

[ailsagirl]

[AJTheMan]

19. Race doesn't matter. Nor does gender. We should all be equal.

I stand by the Democrats and their candidate Barack Obama.

20. It needs to be broken down by state. Sure in the deep south he is behind

by a margin of ten to one. What matters is the swing states.
