aka, the only reason Obama might not win is because he's black.
part of what would cause this is called the bradley effect. fortunately, the bradley effect has not gained a wide consensus since it was first postulated in the 80s, has gotten tremendous testing during the primaries, and the testing suggests that the bradley effect is in effect not an effect. there is still a lot of wiggle room and unknown tho

oh and the bradley effect is the idea that when polled, some people say they will vote for the black guy, but when in the booth they wont.

another thing that would cause this is a higher turnout from racists. well im not worried about that since white racists already vote.
