Default "Poltical Reasons" and "Shares Views"

Quote:
58% Say Obama Denounced Wright for Political Convenience, not Outrage

Only 33% of voters believe that Obama was surprised by the views Wright expressed at Monday’s press conference.


Fifty-two percent (52%) say he was not surprised.

Fifty-six percent (56%) say it’s at least somewhat likely that Obama “shares some of Pastor Wright’s controversial views about the United States.”

That figure includes 26% who say it’s Very Likely Obama holds such views.
At the other end of the spectrum 24% say it’s Not Very Likely that Obama shares such views.
Just 11% say it’s Not at All Likely.

Just 7% of the nation’s voters agree with Wright’s views of the United States.
African-American voters, by a 64% to 12% margin, disagree with Wright.

Eighty-one percent (81%) of all voters are following the story somewhat or very closely.

Nine percent (9%) of voters have a favorable opinion of Wright.
Eight-one percent (81%) have an unfavorable view.
That includes 62% with a Very Unfavorable opinion.

do you know what the above statement means? there is no "mostly unique;" thats like saying "sometimes always," its an oxymoron - its either one or the other.
You are incorrect, per google the phrase mostly unique comes up with over 3 million hits making the use of the phrase not so unique. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q...=Google+Search

He's also solidifying his existing bad numbers amongst whites.

Obama's appeal to working-class whites faltering, polls show

WASHINGTON—Barack Obama's problem winning votes from working-class whites is showing no sign of going away, and their impression of him is getting worse.

more stories like thisThose are ominous signals as he hopes for strong performances in the coming week in Indiana and North Carolina primaries that would derail the candidacy of Hillary Rodham Clinton, his rival for the Democratic presidential nomination. Those contests come as his candidacy has been rocked by renewed attention to his volatile former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, and by his defeat in last month's Pennsylvania primary.

In an Associated Press-Yahoo News poll in April, 53 percent of whites who have not completed college viewed Obama unfavorably, up a dozen percentage points from November. During that period, the numbers viewing Clinton and Republican candidate John McCain negatively have stayed about even

What is with you and political cartoons? Since I have been on this site you are the only person I have ever seen post a political cartoon. That is because they are almost without fail all stupid. That includes liberal cartoons, conservative cartoons, and any other cartoons!

Indiana:
RCP Average 04/25 - 05/02 --
Clinton-Obama
47.5 41.5
Clinton +6.0

North Carolina:
RCP Average 04/26 - 05/02 --
Obama-Clinton
48.8 41.8
Obama +7.0




Obama is hurting bad. He's at risk of losing in North Carolina no matter what the black vote(that is if he still has that group locked up)
