Why Won’t The GOP Compete For African American Votes?
(Washington Post) — This has been such an unpredictable political year that it’s hard to have confidence in any of the forecasts for November. How unpredictable? Well, I’d like to meet the pundit or prognosticator who imagined that a major-party candidate for the U.S. Senate would begin a campaign ad by declaring, “I’m not a witch.” Christine O’Donnell’s sorcery problem aside, there’s one thing I can say with confidence about next month’s midterm election: African Americans will vote overwhelmingly for Democratic Party candidates at every level. This is perfectly rational political behavior — but in many ways it’s a shame.
