Yes, it is about race because when you get over 80% of any race’s votes, it’s about race not who or what you are. It may also be true that there are a small minority of whites who will not vote for Obama because of race. But, Reuben, it has to do with who and what Obama is and what the media has tried mightily to do for him against the best interests of America.
Hillary is hated by many for “who” she is, not because she is a woman and we get to see more of her real self because the media will not duck and cover for her as they are doing for Obama.
For the record, I don’t believe that the tinfoil hatted leftist loons idea of pushing fear in our faces again about the right is going to be as successful. It will be for the dumb, dumber and dumbest…but not the average American voter. We can hear, see and think for ourselves and do not depend on the media for much of anything, anymore.
In the end, it has come down to what the Left has been trying to do for over 70 years and now they must face the reality of their philosophy and politics. The chickens “have come home to roost” as the Left Reverend Wrong says.
