Exit poll: Whites back Clinton strongly in KY

WASHINGTON - Race played a decisive role in Hillary Rodham Clinton's lopsided victory in Tuesday's Democratic presidential primary in Kentucky, the latest contest to emphasize how fierce her rivalry against Barack Obama has become among the party's voters.

Even as Obama edges toward his party's nomination, the Illinois senator showed little progress in chipping away at Clinton's dominance among whites, especially those from the working class.

Seven in 10 whites overall backed Clinton in Kentucky, including about three quarters of those who have not completed college. That made Tuesday's contest one of her stronger performances yet with those blue-collar white voters — little surprise considering Kentucky has one of the country's highest proportions of people who are not college graduates.

In addition, only about four in 10 working-class whites in Kentucky said they would vote for Obama in a matchup with John McCain in the general election. About an equal number said they would support the Republican, and the rest said they would not vote.

It was not just the voters' race, but their racial attitudes, that proved influential.

About one in five whites said race played a role in choosing a candidate Tuesday — on par with results in several other Southern states. Nine in 10 of that group backed Clinton — the highest proportion yet among the 28 states where that question has been asked in exit polls.

Only three in 10 whites who said race was a factor said they would vote for Obama should he oppose McCain in November. Nearly four in 10 said they would back McCain, while the rest said they wouldn't vote.

Among whites who said race was not a factor in picking a candidate Tuesday, half said they would support Obama over McCain.

So, according to AP, you folks really are a bunch of uneducated, cracker motherfuckers. Whatchu gotta say about that? ;)

[The Diabolical Mr. Lieman]

Oh Im definitely an uneducated cracka mothafucka, so shit, I say theyre right!

[Athena]

So, you'll be voting for McCain this year, I take it?

So, you'll be voting for McCain this year, I take it?

I will be and I can't wait!
I would have prefered Rudy but McCain was one of my choices. Party matters the most in the end.

[CPL CHUD]

I would give a lucid, well thought out response, but I can't read the whole thing. God damn white hood is getting in the way again.

[celtic friend]

Why no mention of the record turnout for black voters for Obama? What is their typical level of education? Do you think their vote has anything to do with race? I just have seen mention of the amount of support Obama is getting from black voters in the news but never a mention of their level of education.
This is not to you specifically Athena, just in general.

[CPL CHUD]

I know I read that eight out of ten black voters in Mississippi voted for Obama. I mean, it's no surprise that racism and gender cropped up in this race. It's pretty monumentally linked to this whole social experiment we have going on.

[Athena]

Yeah, but we know black folks are racist S.O.B.s. It's more fun to pick on the white folks who try to pretend they're not. :)

[celtic friend]

True Dat!
I really want to know their level of education though.

[Dakota Valkyrie]

Sheeple are my pet peeve in the political arena. I detest people who base their vote on race, gender, home state, whoever is most popular at the moment... or a multitude of other things that have nothing to do with qualities needed in an elected official or that support one's political ideology.

Half the time it is like watching high school student council elections where the school stud is promising free vending machines.

Would someone please explain this to me (from any of a multitude of sources):

Though most Kentucky Democrats said they thought Obama would be the nominee, 41 percent said they would rather vote for McCain than Obama. Another 23 percent said they would just stay home.

Ignore factors there that have little to do with politics (in my opinion) such as race or gender. Ignore that it is discussing Democrats.

Why would anyone do such a stupid thing? I can maybe at minimum understand NOT voting in protest but to totally vote on the other end of the spectrum makes no sense to me. If the candidates were both middle of the road, then possibly...

I vote the way I think/believe even when I know my candidate stands a snowball's chance in hell of winning.

So much emphasis on "why" to vote. More emphasis needs to be on "how" to vote... and I don't mean understanding how to avoid a hanging chad.

You people are all racist motherfuckers.

I'm writing George Lopez in this year.

Stand up George Lopez, not sitcom George Lopez.

Edit: I also want to point out that Obama is whiter than most of you crackers on this board.

[CPL CHUD]

Hey, Ron Paul is still running.

[Athena]

Stand up George Lopez, not sitcom George Lopez.

Oh, thank god. Sitcom George Lopez would be real punishment.

Exactly. It's because most of us are caught up in Obama's ass.

I was watching a show on white voters being scared of voting for a black man (such bullshit), and it had all these black voters in southern states talking about racism, right? Who were all of them voting for?

Take a real wild guess.

Mc- fucking- Cain.












No, Im kidding. The black candidate.
