Didn't Obama's election pretty much disprove the validity of the Bradley effect?

In any case, I voted "No he won't/Hard to say".

You didn't see the disparity between polling and results in several Southern states (at least WV)?

Obama lost WV by just over 13%. Polls always showed him coming within 1-13% of McCain, with one (ARG) poll giving him an 8% margin of victory.

More like the Clinton effect.

No, I'm not convinced that the effect is really all that prevalent in elections.

I don't think there is a Bradley effect in a multi-candidate race.

He could easily have a "reverse-bradley" effect.  There may be a enough people the GOP base who want to vote for him just because he is black to dispel notions that the GOP is racist (which they aren't)

We Hispanics won't flock to Cain just because Rubio is on the ticket. We aren't that shallow.

Bradley effect isn't who you vote for, it's the difference between who you say you are going to vote for and who you actually do.
