Um, maybe when the blacks either improve their standing financially and see voting for the GOP makes sense DC would vote Republican, but not for the foreseable future. DC is treated like it's unique, but if you took a massively black area of NY and patched a white majority rich suburban area onto it, it would vote like DC.

It's because of Georgetown and the northwestern suburbs being so wealthy. When a fifth of the city is bringing hom 200,000 a year and the other four fifths are bringing home 20,000, that averages out to 56,000 per capita. Now, those numbers are approximations, but describe my point.
