so by using the same logic, the implication is that black people are more racist as their demographic was over 95% for obama?

Nope, the data only matter when he's trying to make a point.

Well, color me surprised.

OP finds a graph which shows voting demographics and immediately turns it into a racial argument. Would have never expected that one.

I think I'm confused.

When almost every single black vote went for BO, what do you think is going to be the outcome?

Gender played a huge role in this election as well.

The gender gap in the 2012 presidential election was the largest since Gallup began tracking the metric in 1952, according to data released by the polling firm on Friday.
 President Obama won women by 12 percentage points, while Mitt Romney won men by 8. That’s a 20-point gender gap,,,,,,,,,,2012 was the fifth straight election to feature a double-digit gender gap.

Men are analytical. Women are emotional. "Mittens is going to take away Roe v. Wade and my free pills!"

People can try and stir the shyt all they want using race, gender whatever.

Bottom line 92% of registered Dems who voted went Obama.
93% of registered Republicans who voted went Romney.

Democrats simply got more people off their asses to vote.

Ok Mr. "Obama voters just want my money and are lazy!"

Women are more emotionally intelligent than men. They also experience higher highs and lower lows (e.g. more likely to cry at something sad or smile/cheer at something happy). Their world is more colorful whereas a man's world is more shades of brown and gray. Men rarely have emotions that are sensitive enough to base decisions on smartly.

The larger number of female democrats is likely due to the empathic "we feel your pain" mantra of the democratic party since Clinton and beyond, which feeds policies like equal pay, pro-choice, etc.

Estrogen's a son of a bitch.

Black people vote for white people every election. There are white folks (some on this board) who've never voted out of their race before. These are usually the people who proclaim blacks are racist for voting for Obama, while at the same time ignoring they're voting for Biden as well. Its not shocking Romney's campaign resonated most with white males.

Gosh, why would anyone ever think a thing like that?

On my facebook feed, there were several women saying Obama was cleaning the floor with Romney during the first debate. There were no men saying that.
