This week, Ann talks about race in politics and the possibility of the Bradley effect in this election. The Bradley effect says that black candidates generally poll higher than actual election results, because people are afraid of the racism charge if they show support for somebody other than the black guy. They'll say they support the black guy so they don't have to defend themselves for not supporting him. Then in the privacy of the polling booth, they'll vote for who they want to. I've said it before, McCain's only chance may be the Bradley effect. If you want to read her article, go on over to HumanEvents and check it out.
