Year in and year out, Gallup is one of the more reliable polling organizations. The information presented here is similar to what many other polling organizations have found. The only question is the degree to which the Clintons have falling in the opinion of Blacks. While this piece provides some direct evidence from polling, the information is generally so well known, that the piece is hardly worth reading.

The article isn't bad in and of itself, but it seems rather irrelevant now that Clinton is out of the race for president. It also seems like a text-book example of how not to conduct a public opinion survey, since only 250 telephone owners were contacted.

Gallop puts out another concise and clear explication of polling results. I would liked a little more about why McCain's rating is so unfavorable with Blacks, and even some explanation of how so many are NOT unfavorably disposed towards McCain. Are Blacks more or less subject to the politics of fear and deception than other groups are?
