After this last cycle and ~90% support of African Americans for Democratic candidates, the typical handwringing over such high levels of support took place. I absolutely believe Republicans competing for African-American votes is a good thing for African-Americans and the country as a whole. I just don’t buy it. Why not?
Duh. Add to it Sonny Perdue and the Confederate Flag and Ronnie White or any other stupid move and every time the Republicans make a step forward, they take a step backward. Not two steps backward, mind you. They are not trying to roll back integration or other blatantly racist policies, but they just can’t connnect.
