Could there be some good-ole boys interviewed who would tell the pollster they were voting Republican because they would not admit to anyone they would vote for a black man, but then vote for Obama in secrecy because they knew that McCain-Palin would be a disaster for the country?
I can see it happening.

I think there very well could be a reverse Bradly effect simply because of the demographics of "likely voters" used by the pollsters.

Shakeman, people like you have damaged the country more than the terrorists. But, you wouldn't understand.

I think there is a "Reverse Bradley Effect", I experienced it when I was married to a black woman. As a mixed couple I often got the feeling that some white people were going out of their way to try and let us know they were OK with us. I don't think it was done on a conscious level. A white man with a black woman is different than the reverse, unfortunately, and we lived on Portland, AKA The Peoples Republic of Portland.
