Did the Ferraro comment impact MS
Seems like the mississipi results where highly in favor of Obama. It hasn't seemed(up to this point) that the black vote was dedicating itself to Obama.


Is it possible that the Comments be Ferraro made MS for Obama?

1. The black vote has consistently been for Obama ever since Clinton's SC dogwhistling backfired. The
only MS surprise was that she erased his recent gains among southern whites. I'd attribute part of that to her race-baiting, and part of that to the Limbaugh Effect.

Probably the opposite.

Its just as likely her comments injecting race into the debate gave many white Republicans the impetus to heed Rush's call to interfere with our primary by trying to help Hillary obtain the nomination.

You're kidding, right? Obama has been getting 90% of the Black vote everywhere.
