he seems to have done okay, going solely by county results. I mean yeah, the Italian vote is a lot more Republican now than it was in, say, the early 60s, but it probably still skews Democratic, and there's got to be a huge gender gap (white Catholics). Remember guys that Italian Americans in real life aren't like the ones in Spike Lee movies, and while Obama might have done a point or two worse than a generic Democrat would do, his race probably didn't cost him all that much with this group, especially since the busing wars ended some time ago.
