Mitt Romney’s campaign website says he is to campaign today (Monday) in Montana, Missouri, Tennessee, Georgia, and New Jersey. If he had planned to be in Birmingham he must have canceled that stop.

I tnink everyone should vote for the best candidate regardless of race, gender or creed. That said, why is a white who votes for a white candidate because of color is a bigot but a black who votes for a black candidate becaude of color is not. Either they are both racist and/or bigots or neither is.

Why Romney to Alabama? Why not? Its probably a refueling point/crew rest stop on the way elsewhere.

Interesting point, Anonymous, although from a certain slant, it almost looks like your saying a certain age group is comprised mainly of bigots instead of considering other factors, e.g. name recognition. Remember what they say about assumptions.

Is the majority of the female Democratic vote racist/sexist/whateverist because they support Clinton? Are male voters sexist because they prefer Obama over Clinton?

But we’ll see Wednesday AM when the stats mavens offer up their “told ya so’s”

Why would Romney come to Alabama? Is there really any chance he’ll even get a sizable showing?

The finding that only those 65+ favor Clinton supports the research showing that society is not becoming more tolerant because people change their minds. Rather it shows that society is growing more tolerant because old bigots die off over time and are replaced more tolerant cohorts. Have we reached the point that a black could win the Democratic primary in Alabama? Or, do a few more old bigots have to die off? We will find out Tuesday.
