all had at least SOME black support. I gasped when I saw that 0% number.

Of course, those candiates weren't running against a black incumbent, but still -- Romney couldn't even get 1%?

We already know what time it is with the G0P. Ever since Obama became the Democratic nominee in '08, the Republicans have shown their true colors. They continue to make up dog whistles and lies about him being a socialist, a food stamp president, a foreigner, and wanting to take away people's freedom. Wingnuts like Ted Nugent have advocated for his assassination. They've compared Obama to a guy who murdered millions of Jews. And he encountered a record amount of obstruction from the other side compared to past presidents.
Now they always want to deny any racial intentions, but I think something definitely looks amiss. I sort of take personally the way Republicans have treated Obama these past four years.
