92. My parents are in Pittsburgh

Okay, now my parents are lifelong Dems, and have been active in the Party and the AARP on and off for a while. (Not now, due to my Dad's health) They have Black friends, including my Dad's former boss. But my Mom - who is strong for Hillary - is coming out with the most racist garbage against Obama. At least she isn't saying that he's a Muslim, but it's close. Like with most things, I find it useless to argue with either of them.

Remember that Pennsylvania is Pittsburgh and Philadelphia with Alabama in between. In some ways, it's even more conservative than Alabama.
