My husband's Bubbie is 91 years old and lives in the great state of North Carolina. She grew up in Detroit and has voted Democratic her whole life. We visited her after the primary and found out that she supported Hillary but did not vote.
My husband's aunt (Bubbie's daughter) confided in us then that she didn't think Bubbie would be willing to vote for Obama. As she's gotten older, she has been known to occasionally make a disparaging remark about "the blacks." When my husband picked up the phone to call her tonight, I suggested he broach the subject. "Remember the great schlep!" I told him.
