"None of this looks like largely more like split "

I misread this sentence as above

Still think that opinion polls don't cover "prevailing". "prevailing" is the views of the people in power, the party leaders and folks winning primaries. Erick erickson even published a piece about the right being captured by the types of views described above.

I know you clearly can't read or respond in more than one sentence, but I said largely not "isn't racist". Moron's post seemed to imply all even if the original was "prevailing."

I've never heard prevailing used that way:

Quote :

"“Prevailing” does not specifically mean the views of people in power. It ordinarily means dominant, widespread, or most generally accepted in the relevant group or setting. https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/prevailing?q=%40word"

Which is not the case at all if you look at the group of people paid to take surveys or dumb enough not to hang up when people call and ask them to take a survey.

You can make these claims using data:
- Republicans are more racist than democrats, but not largely so.
- Democrats largely believe white racism does not exist.
- Republicans and Democrats have different views on the cause of the plight of minorities (culture, apathetic, genetics, opression)


It's cool though we can keep arguing about race instead of sharing recipes for making cat food palatable after the dollar collapses and we are all conscripted in a war in Asia and the middle east.
