Obama will receive close the same percentage most Democrats receive of the white vote, not everyone votes based on race, Republicans shouldn't count on that.

The approvals tell it all, only 35% approve of Romney, while Obama is at 45%. Even if you assume all of those with no opinion would magically approve of Romney, the difference wouldn't be much and we all know everyone with no opinion will approve of him.

little history lesson krazy. Dukakis lost the white vote 59-41 in 1988. In 2010 the generic ballot gave whites a 60-40 R edge. Since when is a one point drop "Far below"?

Not to mention, 2010 was not an average year, it was more Republicans overall than usual.
