9. I'm just quoting the polls

Nov 2012

and I see it in my Friends. I'm sure there are a lot of us. But remember, numbers don't lie and Romney received a huge percentage of aging white males. Hell, he got 60% of the overall white vote. Add in the gender and age gaps, and you can see what I mean. Figures don't lie.

I'm not saying every white male hates President Obama. There's a third who think like me, and we are out working the polls and trying to convince others. But in a sea in which a majority agree with me, I'm on the desert island that holds the bitter, losing group that disagrees with me.

Wonderful post. Grateful for Hope Nov 2012 #1
