The real question is whether middle class and upper middle class white women will vote for Senator Obama. The exiting polling seems to indicate that white males have a much easier time voting for blacks than white females. Of course, any sports fans could have told you that it is common for suburban white males to follow black athletes but that white upper middle class white women still refuse to be interested in black female athletes.

Besides, suburban white women are going to identify with Hillary Clinton because those suburban white women would never send their daughters to inner city schools any more than Hillary Clinton would have sent Chelsea to a school that was majority black.
