They are implying that if you are a conservative then you must somehow be a racist.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Quoting <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.tnr.com\/tnr\/blogs\/the_plank\/archive\/2008\/09\/25\/inside-the-hang-ups-of-phone-polls.aspx\" target=\"_blank\">TNR<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Scott Keeter, director of survey research at Pew, added that while there was evidence a decade ago that people with <strong>racially conservative<\/strong> views were likely to put their receivers down, that trend has diminished. &#8220;In 1997, the first time we did [an experiment], we did find a small&#8211;I emphasize small&#8211;degree of potential bias in under-representing <strong>racial conservatism<\/strong>, but we are talking about a percentage point or two, barely statistically significant,&#8221; he said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I hope TNR can eventually unwind themselves from that particular bit of twisting the language. What they don&#8217;t get is that in order to believe in the New US Liberalism, a person must be a racist and a bigot. Why else would they be so outraged that we won&#8217;t elect a buffoon to the Presidency just to fill some arbitrary racial quota they devised?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well, we&#8217;ve known that the Obama crowd is worried about their own party members who seem &hellip; <a title=\"Tying racist Dems to Conservatives\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=3432\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Tying racist Dems to Conservatives<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3432","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-politics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3432","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3432"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3432\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3432"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3432"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3432"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
