If you want a real shocker, Google "'Howard Stern' + Obama". I'm not one of Stern's fans but he really hit it right with this one.
To check out reports that Blacks were voting for Obama because of his race, Stern went up to Harlem and interviewed some registered voters. YouTube shows the results.
When he asked if they voted for Obama because he was black, the reply was always, "No, he has the right policies for America". So he asked if they agreed with the following Obama policies:
1. He is against abortions.
2. he wants troops to stay in Iraq until the war is won.
3. He believes in cutting taxes.
The replies were "YES, those are the best policies".
He then nailed the coffin shut by asking if they thought Obama's choice of VF, Sarah Palin, had enough experience".
"YES".
But, no, it wasn't all one-sided. He found a white McCain supporter who agreed with Obama's policies attached to McCain, and naturally agreed that McCain's choice of Joe Biden for VP was the right one.
All this flies -SPLAT- in the face of the all-wise pundits who have for years applauded the "wisdom of the voting Masses".
It's really no surprise though. Remember the late night "Man in the street" interviews where the guy could not find California on a map?
