At least 90% of the Republican party is "White Christian".

[OrlandoGator]

Do we have demographics? If ths figure is less than 90%, I'll be shocked.

Although, come to think of it, there's lots of Cuban Repukes down here in Florida. Maybe they'll throw off the average.

1. If you go by the convention

it's more like 99%

[OrlandoGator]

3. Dean should have said "purple Christians"

Between the disgraceful mocking Band-Aids to the ink on the fingers...they seemed more purple at the convention than anything.

2. these south fla cubans

are so diehard it's crazy. One told me yesterday "If you don't agree with Bush you are a communist"

I do see some in the younger generations with some common sense though.

4. It's been that way ever since Bay of Pigs.

They feel that JFK betrayed them, and I can't entirely disagree.

I'm Cuban-American, by the way.

5. Many of them (the south fla cubans) are...

...as white as they come. They are descendants and remnants of the Bautistas, descendants of Spaniards. European. White.

6. thank you.

8. I didn't mean to generalize,

I took a lot of harsh abuse from Miami Cubans during the election season, I just couldn't figure it out.

7. There's nothing sillier than...

People bragging about who they are, then acting outraged when someone else describes them the same way as they describe themselves.


:rofl:


edit: damn you typo gods!

9. I think I heard something about 88% of Bush's 2004 vote were from whites.

Not sure about the demographics for Christians, but I imagine it was quite large.

[BellaLuna]

10. well, they're white.. how 'Christian' they are is up for debate

.

[Hubert Flottz]

11. That's why I'm glad to be a white democratic hellion!

Have been all my life!

[many a good man]

12. White males and weekly churchgoers are the ONLY demographic groups

that consistently vote Republican. Even white females tip Dem more often than not. Think about it.

[OrlandoGator]

13. A day later, and the statement is STILL TRUE.
