Any chance the gap isn't larger because he's black? I think race is a pretty stupid discussion topic when it comes to politics but I believe there are a decent number of people in America that are hesitant to vote in the first black president.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
