White conservatives aren't black Americans
Instapundit links with an article that points out that more black Americans support the massive rebuilding spending than white Americans do, and think this is a sign of Rovian genius.
However, let's come at it from another angle:
The spending plan has not been well received by conservative voters--just 43% favor the huge federal commitment partisan while 37% are opposed. This is especially striking given how supportive the President's base has remained throughout his Administration.
The President's reconstruction plan is favored by 66% of liberal voters. Still, only 10% of liberals give the President a good or an excellent rating for handling the crisis.
Call me crazy, but most blacks fall would fall into the supportive liberal category than the unsupportive conservative one (Remember Bush garnered a whopping 10% of the black American vote coupled with 85% of conservatives overall.
So while it's true that more black Americans support rebuilding spending, it's more because they aren't white conservatives than a new ideological alignment with the President.
In other words, Instapundit's hmmm doesn't mean a thing.
