I personally am not colored so I can't really say who the colored women will vote for based on my opinion. Yesterday in the NY Times, they actually had an article about this exact issue. It was titled something along the lines of "Who's Black and female and Who will they vote for" I can't remember the title exactly. In South Carolina, the ratio of black women voting for Obama was something like 75% compared to the 80% of black men who voted for Obama. So there is a slight gap in that aspect. I really only know what is going to be happening in NY tbh. I think that NY will be won by Hillary. In the city, registered women voters outnumber men by 50%. She is leading drastically among women voters. Its like 60% for Hillary to 30% for Obama. I just think its a rough decision for black women because they have to choose between having a woman president or a black president. Although, I'd like to think they won't vote based on gender or race. I know I won't be.
Hillary is more popular with the older crowd, and Obama is more popular with the younger crowd. I do have hope with the recent endorsement from Caroline Kennedy for Obama that just maybe we can have more of a shift toward Obama. Hillary just has a hold on the working class that Obama doesn't plus she is our senator.
I will say come Feb. 5 I will be voting Obama no question about that. I even have my outfit planned
I seriously doubt it will be a Republican win. Their candidates are not strong enough yet. There is too much division within the party at the moment. Let's just hope that McCain doesn't run with Guiliani as his VP.

that assumes that women or black people vote based on race and gender
No not necessarily. I didn't get into the nitty gritty of the article on here but it is also talked about the fact that race and gender are not the deciding factors of the election. In a number of the early primaries, the way people are voting has been going both ways. Race and gender are not the only predictors of the vote. As a woman, I can say that at first I was drawn to Hillary because I want to see a woman in office. As time passed, I realized I don't agree with her on many issues therefore I am voting Obama since I agree with him. So I think many black women are just like me and not basing their decisions just on race and gender.
The Republican party is kind of a bunch of idiots. Ron Paul is probably their best overall candidate and they just basically shit on him because he isn't a big name. So basically they threw all their money into a couple of religious nuts, a mormon, and a guy who peeked 8 years ago. The only thing they have going for them is the fact that they will be up against a woman or a black man. Well that and unethical campaigning.
