Slightly more than the membership in The Flat Earth Society. I doubt that the Tipster [McNeill], Chrissie's old boss, had many kind words for the Commies.After all, they didn't deliver him votes!<br /><br />Chrissie was The One who got a tingle up his leg in response to The One. Coherent thought with him is hit or miss. Sometimes he does come up with a coherent statement. Part of the problem is that of being an on-air pundit. Odds are that anyone who talks for an hour at a time is going to say some damn fool thing.<br /><br />The MSM and the Oilbama administration has tried for the last year to demonize and marginalize the Tea Party. Result: they are stronger than ever.<br /><br />From the Gallup Poll: <a href="http://www.gallup.com/poll/127181/Tea-Partiers-Fairly-Mainstream-Demographics.aspx" rel="nofollow">Tea Partiers Are Fairly Mainstream in Their Demographics</a> <br /><br />Tea Party Supporters 28%<br />Tea Party Opponents 26%<br />Neither 38%<br />No Opinion 6%<br /><br />Tea Party Supporters<br />Non-Hispanic White 79 %<br />Non-Hispanic Black 6%<br />Other 15%<br /><br />All Americans<br />Non-Hispanic White 75%<br />Non-Hispanic Black 11%<br />Other 15%<br /><br />For the 2008 election, it was estimated that blacks constituted 13% of the voters, with 96% of black voters voting for Obama. With 46% of the vote going to McCain, the math says that blacks represented 1.1% of the Republican vote in 2008. The math, in percentages : ((.04X.13)/.46) X100.<br /><br /><b>Blacks constitute six percent of Tea Party supporters while blacks constituted one percent of McCain voters in 2008! </b>That is quite a difference. These numbers say that the Tea Party has had considerable success in attracting black support compared to what the Republicans did in 2008.Gringonoreply@blogger.com
