No one expected the Republicans to win the black vote. They should have done better with the Hispanic vote.
But it took real genius to lose the Asian vote by 3:1. (Asian Americans are severely disadvantaged by affirmative action, more so than whites.)
I've had it with the GOP in its present form. I've had it with the conservative coalition in its present form.
The loss of a winnable election was bad enough, but the reactions of the commenters at Legal Insurrection were the last straw for me.
My guess---purely a guess---is that Asian Americans looked at the influence of the creationist, every-sperm-is-sacred religious kooks and said sayonara.
I'm saying sayonara too.
