I posted asboutr a month ago that the only way that Obama could lose would be 
if hidden racism among democrats was high.  Other than for that one reason, 
all of the demographic numbers should guarantee Obama a victory.  
Evidentally, others share my opinion.  bobf

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Deep-seated racial misgivings could cost Barack Obama the 
White House if the election is close, according to an AP-Yahoo News poll that 
found one-third of white Democrats harbor negative views toward blacks -- 
many calling them ''lazy,'' ''violent'' or responsible for their own troubles.
