25. Honestly, don't even both repeating this drivel
Obama could not have won his numbers without broad support of whites of every size, shape, height, weight, sex, age, hair color, aftershave, income, education, pronunciation, deviation, hard working, lazy, whatever.

All the groups she claims to have the edge in have also voted for Obama and he has made steady inroads during this campaign. In the GE, he will have much higher numbers.

When the reality of McCain sets in, many of these "hard workers" will stick to their Democratic American values and vote for Obama. Sure, Obama may lose some, but he will win over more.

None of these labels mean anything when you get down to looking at people as people. Some will go one way, some will go the other.

It's a specious argument to begin with and it frankly, doesn't warrant serious consideration or worry.
