DAILY DOOM ANTIDOTE: Who out there is really voting for Obama? — October 1st, 2012

Posted on October 1, 2012 by Kevin DuJan // Featured Content, Hillbuzz, Open Threads

To counter the gloom and doom spread by the corrupt, vintage media (which has definitely become a Ministry of Truth pumping out nonstop Democrat propaganda) let’s today examine who out there is really voting for Barack Obama in 2012.  From where I sit, things shake out like this:

Those Voting for Obama No Matter What:

* Blacks — who will vote out of race-pride like they did in 2008.  Black voters are the most racist in the country, supporting Obama with 95% of their numbers.  Once again, blacks will prove that the job a person does in office is not as important as his skin color.  However, many blacks who feel they never got anything personally from Obama will stay home on election day.  Black preachers are encouraging their congregations not to vote because of both Obama’s support for gay marriage and his closeted gay lifestyle (and history in bathhouses like Man’s Country in Chicago). Obama can’t beat his black turnout in 2008 and will instead get a much lower number of black voters than he needs to win.  If he loses Pennsylvania, it will be because blacks in Philly didn’t mobilize like they did in 2008.

* Gays — the gay community pumps out a constant propaganda campaign declaring all Republicans evil.  The majority of gays who will vote this year will believe this garbage and vote for Obama just because he is a Democrat and gay people are taught when they come out that if they are gay they must always vote Democrat. But a lot of gay guys in particular are very flaky and might not bother showing up on election day.  A great many lesbians are small business owners so perhaps they will defect and vote Romney (FYI:  lesbians are not as impacted by the anti-Republican propaganda because they do not spend as much time in bars and in gay culture as guys do).

* Muslims — Barack Obama has overseen the toppling of Egypt and Libya where radical Islamofascists have now taken over.  This is a wild success as far as Muslims are concerned…so he’s got this vote locked up.

* Jews — like the adage goes: Jews are lefties first, Democrats second, and Jews last.  Perhaps a good number of them will sit home because of the damage Obama continues to do to the economy.  The fact that Obama has put Israel in grave danger because of his encouragement of the Islamic takeover of secular Middle Eastern governments regrettably means nothing to a great many Jews.

Groups Who Will Vote for Obama in Reduced Numbers in 2012:

* Youth vote — college kids will vote for Obama because their professors tell them too but there’s no “cool factor” to doing so in 2012.  All the hopeychange hype is SO FOUR YEARS AGO.  Obama is like the New Kids on the Block or the Cabbage Patch Kids to a lot of these people in that he was something their older brother or sister was really into a while ago that they don’t really relate to.  Former Obama voters might be smarting from a lack of jobs and the nonfulfillment of all they were promised under “Hope and Change” banners.  Expect the “youth vote” to drop down to 2004 levels.  Kids will find something better to do with their time.

* Hispanics — I think all the screaming about abortion at the Democrat Convention may have damaged Obama with a lot of Hispanics.  Remember that Hispanics have no loyalty to either party.  They are unique in this.  I think Democrats underestimate the negative impact of giant vaginas walking around screaming about wanting to kill their babies on TV during the coverage of Charlotte last month.  I also think they underestimate the number of Hispanics who don’t want to reward law-breakers with amnesty.  No way this group improves upon Obama’s 2008 numbers.  But, honestly, that’s true for ALL the groups of his voters.  There is just not a single group in his coalition that will give him HIGHER numbers this year than in 2008…meaning the last election is Obama’s ceiling.  We’ll know his floor when November 6th rolls around, but it’s looking to be lower than Kerry’s was in 2004…which means Romney wins as his ceiling will be much higher than McCain’s in 2008 or Bush’s in 2004.

* Women who are turned off by nonstop abortion advocacy — this is something else Democrats are underestimating:  women who abhor abortion and are insulted by being treated like giant, sex-crazed fiends who delight in killing their unborn babies.  The Democrats’ convention was appalling.  There are many moms out there who want nothing to do with the party after that abortion-fest.

* Occupy Wall Street Sympathizers — I have a hunch a lot of these people will either sit out the election “to teach Democrats an election” or will vote for the Green Party or something.  These people are frustrated and broken hearted that OWS didn’t return in full force this spring like it was supposed to.  To them, the “movement” fizzled and was flushed away and they resent that Obama did not support it more strenuously.  There are a lot of far-left lunatics who are greatly disappointed in Obama for not doing more damage to the country.  Will they go to the polls to reelect him?  I think a lot of them will stay home.  It will be similar to Republicans sitting home in 2008 in protest of McCain.

* White People Who Waited Their Whole Lives For A Black President — I have to actually admit that I do think it’s cool there is a black First Family.  I just wish that it was Allen West and his wife living in the White House.  A lot of people voted for Obama in 2008 because they thought it was time that America had a black president…and they were proud of electing him, despite knowing nothing about this guy.  They gave him the benefit of the doubt because they wanted to make history.  A good portion of these people will vote for him again despite him being such a disappointment and failure.  They just won’t vote against a black man who is president.  That means a lot of them could stay home, however.

* People Who Belong to a Union — the unions are Democrat controlled and unions control Democrats.  If you are not in a labor union, you should never vote Democrat and if you are in a union you probably do vote Democrat because you want to protect your job-for-life-regardless-of-performance special status. But even amongst union members, people are dissatisfied with Obama’s lack of job creation and his Keystone Pipeline refusal to make America energy independent (while creating thousands of new union jobs). I doubt union guys will vote Romney, but they might sit their butts at home.

People Who Will NOT Vote For Obama No Matter What:

* McCain Voters — because I just can’t see anyone who voted McCain in 2008 liking anything about the Obama presidency enough to vote for him over Romney this year.  It was really hard voting for McCain because that guy is just so creepy and infuriating.  His pasty face, shock of white hair, and weasel-like habit of selling out whatever principles he claimed to have whenever he wanted media love and attention never sat well with me.  I voted for Sarah Palin to become Vice President and tried to ignore the McCain part of that vote.  This time around, whether you love Romney or not you have to admit he is much more palatable than McCain.  And thought Ryan is not as exciting a pick as Palin was four years ago, he’s still super-awesome.  Together I feel they are a ticket that is much more appealing than voting for McCain…and so no one who cast Republican votes last time around will be switching sides.  Obama’s done nothing to pull these people away from the GOP.

* People Who Sat Home in 2008 to Teach Republicans A Lesson — these guys are voting this time and won’t play games.  If they do play games again and hand Obama a second term, these people aren’t serious voters or Republicans anyway but are just attention-seeking lunatics.  McCain lost Ohio because something like 300,000 of these people sat home on election day four years ago.  That’s not going to happen again.

* Tea Party Americans — You think they were out and proud in 2010?  Just wait until November, baby.  This has been building for four years now and it’s lunacy to think that between 2010 and 2012 these people either became unenthused or decided that Obama “wasn’t so bad after all”.  These people are going to give Democrats a shellacking that makes 2010 look like a warm-up.  The thing is: the media spent all its energy and exhausted its credibility pretending the Tea Party didn’t exist from 2009 to 2010…and it then spent 2010 to the present claiming the Tea Party is dead.  You don’t see any reporting on the Tea Party…but yet the Tea Party Americans are still fired up and active.  The media is ignoring this because they are wish casting at the Ministry of Truth:  they don’t want the Tea Party to be real or exist so they just ignore it.  This will lead to heart attacks and brain aneurysms at MSNBC on election night. I can’t wait to do the live-blog-transcript of that.

* People Who One or Work for Small Businesses — why on Earth would these people vote for Obama if their jobs and livelihoods depended on it?

* People Who Work in the Medical Field — again…why on Earth would you vote for Obama if you knew Obamacare would create havoc in your field of employment?

* People Who Work in the Coal Industry — ditto on the not supporting a man who seeks to destroy you.

* Those Who Believed Obama Was A Magical Black Man — these are the sort of fools who appear in Stephen K. Bannon’s “The Hope and the Change” and who claim they were duped and deceived into believing Barack Obama could work miracles four years ago.  I have to say that I think these people are morons who acted more out of white guilt than anything…and that their votes were race-based as they liked being the nobel and enlightened white people who deigned to support a magical black man who they assumed would solve all their problems like he was Will Smith in a golf movie.  Idiots.  But not stupid enough to make the same mistake twice.

* People Afraid of Being Called Racist for Not Supporting Obama — I don’t have a guess on how many of these people existed in 2008 but I do believe some people cast ballots for Obama because they believed someone would know if they didn’t and would then call them racists.  Other people might have wanted to see a black man become president just to shut people like Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and Henry Gates up already.  Obama’s election satisfied all these people but there is no similar emotional push to “reelect the first black president”.  Minus that emotion, either these people vote Romney or they stay home but they are not voting for Obama again.

* Seniors — they don’t believe the Mediscare stuff.  They like Paul Ryan and understand that Obamacare will destroy Medicare as they know it.  They also know they don’t have many elections left in them and they want to leave the country in better hands for their grandkids.  No way they vote Obama again this year.

* People Who Are Watching the Middle East Burn and Know Obama is Responsible — not sure how many of these people exist, but Americans who follow foreign policy know Obama is either in over his head or is deliberately trying to set the world on fire.  Either way, I can’t see anyone who really follows foreign policy giving Obama their votes.  Either they stay home or they vote Romney.

* The Unemployed — if you have been looking for work for months or years then you are not going to be voting for Obama.  Once again, you will either sit home or you will vote for Romney hoping that he will improve your situation.  The class warfare tactics are not working and people think giving the country over to a businessman and a guy who loves math is probably a great idea.

* People Who Are Turned Off By Celebrity and Lavish Spending — the Obamas have run up quite a tab on taxpayers’ dime.  The bill comes due on November 6th.  Those who don’t want the US to have a spendthrift royal family will not be casting votes for Barack Obama.  A lot of people are VERY angry hearing about the $35 million oceanfront Hawaiian estate that Penny Pritzker and other wealthy Chicagoans are purchasing for the Obamas to move into come 2013 as their Ferdinand-and-Imelda-Marcos-esque escape plan.

Who am I missing up there? 

What groups do YOU think will vote for Obama no matter what…and which ones will not vote for him for any reason this year?  Who is going to sit the election out this time?

This is an open thread, so please tell us whatever else is on your mind.

Tell us what is happening on the ground NEAR YOU, too.  Anecdotal evidence from wherever you live is the best reporting around right now.

    Mama grizzlies. I would add mothers and grandmothers because most of us see that we are setting our children and grandchildren up for a very hard life with this president. We see no jobs, heavy government financial burdons and wars. We moms care about many things, but nothing more than our children.

    Good analysis. I think Obama has overestimated his youth support. These kids are unable to find decent work and are saddled with massive student loans. Since kids expect things to be fixed quickly, and because he has made no effort to improve the employment situation, I think he will lose a lot more.

    Why is he campaigning in high schools? My theory is that the seniors are still naive enough to think he means what he says. He has to get some of them to make up for the numbers who have lost faith in him.

      They’ve made it so hard for Military members to get ballots….the Pentagon is trying to surpress the vote, it seems! When they do get ballots…Obama is trying to change the voting rules, at least in Ohio, that it’s almost impossible for the Military members to vote. In 2000, Bush v Gore….there was a lot of military vote suppression. Obama knows the Military doesn’t like him…El Paso, recently, at Fort Bliss, they military hardly clapped when he spoke at all! Obama & Co, are doing everything they can to keep Military men and women from voting!

      I was involved in a conversation with a young relative recently, who won’t be turning 18 until after the election and felt upset that she couldn’t vote. When asked who she would vote for, if she could, this time around her reply was she didn’t know but she liked Obama’s stance on social issues. And The Daily Show says Mitt Romney flip flops on issues.

      All I could think was, social issues aren’t going to get you a job. So yes high-schoolers can be naive.

    I don’t think the military is too happy with Obama! Fast&Furious cover-up involving the death of Brian Terry makes any American peacekeeper angry. Spending cuts & the hollowing out of the military by Obama is a real issue with these patriots, and their families. Also, the super slimy mess he is desperately trying to keep undercover regarding the rape & murder of Chris Stevens in Libya is reinforcing the idea that Obama has no one’s back but his own. That ain’t military baby! I sure hope this group does’t opt to stay home.

    I think you’ve nailed it, Kevin. The meme the malignant media is pushing is that 2012 will be another Wave year for the Dems, surpassing 2008. Not going to happen. The anecdotal stories coming in here indicate indicate the rapture with this particular messiah, is over.

    The Tea Party is very much alive, we’re just a quietly seething bunch waiting for Nov. 6th.

    P.S. Kevin, you have the makings of a great book about the 2012 election when all is said and done. A number of your articles are chapters already written. :-)

    The Military Vote? Of course that’s if their votes for deployed personnel get counted, but I think that as a whole, they vote Republican. There are still some Ron Paul hold-outs in the military. These are people who enlisted because they couldn’t find a job or want the educational benefits, but don’t want to be deployed.
    I remember when in Dec. 2008, the base announced “the President was coming” and they had to sign up to see him. First question asked, “which President”? Bush or Obama? Bush, to say goodbye and Thank You….Huge turnout. Not thrilled to go to see Obama.

    Here is a ground report of sorts …

    I had the opportunity to drive across the state this weekend, and driving through very liberal Dane County (where Madison is located), I saw a couple of handmade large signs for the president’s campaign. Remember a couple of weeks ago I mentioned that in another county that I had seen a number of hand-stenciled large signs. It is very surprising that even in a very liberal area like Dane County, there were no large signs for the president’s campaign.

    Did see one of these hanging outside someone’s house, though, as we were driving around: http://www.amazon.com/President-Barack-Obama-Weather-Resistant-Polyester/dp/B00563CD10 (note the very marked down price, and that it costs more to ship it than the flag itself costs).

    Even the Democrat National Committee is afraid that Obozo will lose the debate with Romney! Guess this joker was sent out to lower expectations of Obama even more than they already are. The White House has been putting out blurbs that Obama is just too busy being President to practice for the debates. Now the DNC is saying that, ‘Well, Romney has all the time in the WORLD to practice, but Obama hasn’t debated in four years, for heaven’s sake!”

    This is not the behavior of a team that thinks they are winning. Be afraid lefties, be very afraid…

    Great analysis. I do hope many parents of college or other young children start having tough-love heart-to-heart discussions with their kids. Many of their children stumped for and voted for Obama, and now their own lives as well as those of their parents have been hurt. Parents need to have a good discussion of their kids, basically telling them to tune out their leftist clown professors and use their own thinking and judgment. Their professors aren’t looking out for them in the least bit. Their professors keep getting huge raises year after year (much higher than rate of inflation), their professors don’t live in the real world – they’re academics, their professors are primarily on the government dole, their professors aren’t the ones who support them in the even they can’t find jobs or have to move into their parents’ basements. Parents and kids are the ones suffering as a result of this clown in the WH. Kids need to wonder – do I want to be living in mom and dad’s basement for live or do I want to have a nice life of my own? Because they’re not gonna get the latter with Obama in the WH. They’ll end up becoming like many men in Italy (and elsewhere in Europe) who live with their parents well into adulthood. And we’re all seeing now the cluster that is Europe. Why do we want to become like them?

    I have to disagree about the Jews. The latest poll shows the Jewish support for Obama is down to 65 percent. During the 2008 election he got 78% Jewish vote. While 65% may still be the majority of Jews, the 13% decrease is enough to throw Florida into Romney territory.

    I’m Jewish and most of my Jewish family and friends are not voting for Obama. Many of them did vote for him in 2008 but they aren’t voting for him now.

      Maybe this will help. Shortly after Sherrod Brown became senator he was asked to speak at a JDRF black tie dinner that my husband and I attended in Columbus. Apparently the committee didn’t realize how radical he was and he got up looking like a rumpled professor and proceeded to talk about funding embryo stem cell research for diabetes studies. Several of us got up and walked out it was so disgusting. There were lots of small children there dressed to the 9s who were all childhood diabetes onset suffers. I can’t imagine what their parents were thinking. The man is a communist with no regard for human life.

    Just came back from visiting family in Minnesota. They are all convinced Obama is going to win and I can’t blame them based on what they see all around them. It was the most Obama signs I’ve seen all year–probably 8 to 10 or so in the northern suburbs of Minneapolis. I made a point of referring family to Hillbuzz and other alternate news sites so they can gain a little perspective.

    Back home in NC this morning taking the Girl Wonder to school, I drove by 5 Romney signs and 3 anti-Obama signs. Political signs aren’t encouraged in our subdivision, but I also saw 6 empty chairs sitting in front yards. They seemed to have been placed deliberately all by themselves, but I wasn’t sure if I should count them or not.

    Concerning union voters… I was a member of the IAFF (International Association of Firefighters) for 33+ years. While the IAFF organization leans to the left, my experience is that for the most part most of the members are fairly conservative. At least where I worked and most of the other surrounding Fire Departments. I would also believe that most Police Unions are comprised of mainly conservatives. Probably can’t say that about most other Public Sector unions and most Private Sector unions.

    You are phenom! My mother in law is a New Jersey-Florida Jew & said they are not usually into voting, but, since she watches NBC, excitedly voted for O in ’08. She knew absolutely nothing about him! Now, she is running to the polls to try to undo this madness!

    Before you write off all blacks, check out the website S.T.A.N.D. by Bishop E.W. Jackson, who is one of many socially conservative blacks calling for black Christians to leave the Democrats. The Democrats, in their efforts to pander to everyone (except white conservatives), forgot that blacks don’t get motivated by the same things that white leftists do!

      Thanks for posting this, Jane. I’ve been saying all along that if true Christians have to choose between God and a black person, they will choose God. No competition whatsoever. Some will never believe this is possible and doubt that African-Americans will choose something besides skin color. However, the truth of the matter is that being a believer means people’s hearts have changed–from the inside out!

    I generally agree with your analysis, but there is one group of Obama voters you missed. Many old people, in their 70′s, 80′s and 90′s have NOTHING to do and spend 6, 8, 10 hours a day watching television. They are irretrievably brainwashed and those of them who vote will vote for Obama.

      My parents and many aunts and uncles fall into the age group you mention, Livver, and they are well informed, computer savvy, and pissed off at O. Some of these folks have been hit the hardest by O’s policies, and they aren’t likely to forget it. You’re not giving them enough credit: They endured the Carter years, remember? And they despised him. O’s even worse!

I call them sound bite voters, they consider themselves responsible citizens so they vote, but they get their politics in sound bites at the top of the News. Well they voted for Hope and Change in 2008 and they got it Good and Hard. Now they want it changed back.

    Gallup Poll has Obama’s approval back down to 47%. Historically no President has won re-election with approval rating that low. With Benghazi-gate, there’s no way it could get better for him.

    A few of the polls that had Obama winning by 5 pts or higher last week now have Obama losing pts and it’s a statistical tie.

    Kevin — Since this is an open thread, I just had to write to tell you what the legacy media tried to do to Ann Romney last week, when she was on “The Tonight Show”. She wore this really hot black leather outfit, and black lace shoes. Yahoo news said, “Ann Romney commits fashion faux pas on the Tonight Show”.

    I really didn’t think the outfit looked bad at all, in fact, I think she looked fantastic for a woman over 60!! I don’t even look that good now, and I’m 10 years younger than her.

    Just my 2 cents.

    Here’s another constituency that will not prefer The One this time.

    Doctors.

    Yes, Physicians. The ones most affected by Obamacare.

    “If the election were held today, 55 percent of physicians reported they would vote for Romney while just 36 percent support Obama, according to a survey released by Jackson & Coker, a division of Jackson Healthcare, the third largest health care staffing company in the United States

    Fifteen percent of respondents said they were switching their vote from Obama in 2008 to Romney in 2012. The top reasons cited for this change was the Affordable Care Act and the failure to address tort reform.

    Leadership style, failure to follow through on campaign promises, unemployment and the general state of the economy were also factors.”

    I’ve seen the report that Pew Research said 91% of those they call to poll don’t respond. So I looked up their most recent poll in RealClear, from 9/19, and adjusted the numbers accordingly. The poll was based on 2,424 registered voters, with 1,188 supporting Obama and 1,602 Romney. I’m not going to bother with party ID, unskewing or anything (though the poll did way oversample Dems). Anyway, assuming only 9% responded, here are the true poll results:

    Based on 26,933 attempted calls, Obama leads Romney 4.41% to 3.94% with 92.29% other, undecided, or non-responsive. There is a margin of error of 0.6%.

    Obviously some of those 26,933 are not registered voters, but I think the point is pretty clear. Not exactly a poll one can take seriously.

    I heartily agree with your analysis, except for 2 groups:

    Medical: while doctors will vote overwhelmingly for RR, nurses will go for Obama.

    Many of them – sadly – think Obamacare means everyone will get health care. And that includes my own super-smart daughter, who should know better and had voted GOP every election since she turned 18. She’s been co-opted by the lefties in her profession and her lefty husband. While I don’t see her bothering to vote for Obama because she lives in Boston and it makes no difference anyway, she definitely won’t vote for Romney. Which shows me how far she has sunk in a year, because at this time last year she said she could see herself voting for him.

    And don’t discount the union thugs. Money is a very powerful motivator for these people.

    An interesting item I just heard from an Hispanic caller from California, no less. He stated that La Raza is VERY mad that Obama did not get amnesty passed and that they have a great deal of influence with Univision. As a result, Univision put on the very damaging report that appeared on the Univision channel last night on Fast & Furious. He said the decision was made when Obama did not give the right answer when he did the interview with Univision a week or two ago.

    He also stated that Latinos who are not “into” La Raza are very conservative. I take that to mean that they will not be voting en masse for Bamey and that is more good news!

    I am a member of a teacher’s union. Since I have to put it into simple terms for my colleagues to understand (since so many of them are clueless and only vote for Democrats because that is what the union bigwigs tell them to do) I say things like, “I never worried about my job under a Republican Administration.” (we had a ton of job cuts last year) and “If I had $10,000 to invest in retirement, I would seek the advice of a millionaire businessman to help grow my money, not some community organizer” or, “I could never vote for a candidate who, while a State Legislator, voted three times against a law requiring medical practitioners to provide assistance to babies who survive late term abortion.”

    I think my strategy is working a bit because the liberal who I commute with is now saying she may not vote at all…

    If there is anyone who deserves to have their vote counted it’s the US military. Once again bureaucrats are making sure they don’t get the chance.

    Here’s your chance to help out. Once again at least 30 Wisconsin municipalities failed to mail out absentee ballots in the required 45 days. They had the same problem in 2008 and 2004.

    BIG WIN for Constitutionalists:
    DC Judge rules that Minor v. Happersett is precedent holding defining a natural born citizen “BORN INCOUNTRY OF CITIZEN PARENTS”

    Being born incountry (jus soli) alone is only 1/3rd of the requirement to be POTUS. Since Obama admits his father was never a US Citizen, he fails Article II Section 1 Clause 5 per Minor v. Happersett. He’s only a 14th amendment citizen (IF that!) and therefore not a natural born citizen.

    - Bankers – regulations are killing them.
    - Democrats who now understand that when you threaten corporations with a major tax increase they will delay expansions, hiring, etc.
    - Manufacturers – the EPA is out of control.
    - Real estate agents – the 3.8% tax on some real estate transactions will get the affected people to think twice about selling their homes.
    - Investors – 3.8% tax on some investments.
    - Developers – less money from banks for people to purchase land they’re trying to develop and sell.
    - Professional women who are tired of hearing about the importance of free birth control, etc. from democrat women.

    Sorry for the late post- worked all day. But I wanted to add in my two cents.

    I think there’s one more thing that will cause less hispanics to vote for Obama this year- Fast and Furious and the cover up. Or at least it should.

    I remember after the ’08 election, all the TV pundits were calling it a “realigning election.” Even then, I had the strong feeling their words would come back to bite them.

    A great read making the case that Obama has introduced Mussolini style National Socialism into our government. George Bush issued 63 executive orders over 8 years, and the media criticized every one of them. In less that 4 years Obama has signed 983 executive orders, that’s almost one a day. That’s government by dictatorial caveat. Challenge a leftist to name just five, I bet he can’t.
