Now hold on just a gol dang minute. We thought the only people who opposed President Obama were evil white racists. Isn’t that what we’ve been told since the day the media anointed this guy?
So how does that jibe with the results of this new Gallup poll as reported by the Los Angeles Times:
Once monolithic, blacks’ support for the first African American president is still. . . . immense. But for unclear reasons it’s declined about 7% from well above 90% to 85% in March. That’s a new low since Obama’s inauguration 26 months ago.
Equally ominous for Obama in 2012, his approval among Hispanics, the nation’s fastest-growing demographic, has also fallen to again tie his term low of 54%. That’s a drop of 11 points from its early high of 65%.
Gallup seems puzzled by the unexpected decline, mentioning March’s major news as possible reasons: the ongoing fight with Congress over no fiscal 2011 federal budget and Obama leading the country into a new military combat zone over Libya.
Gallup seems puzzled? Perhaps. But we suspect that it’s the über liberal Los Angeles Times that’s really puzzled.
