Is Obama saying race is a factor?

Was race a factor when Obama won Iowa, where that victory gave him the momentum to win the election?

Other than a few like Hannity commenting on the "black" vote, historically (based on polls) hasn't the "black" vote gone for the Democratic nominee in ranges from 80% to 90%, therefore meaning this election is no different?

Hasn't there always been a "white" element in the Democratic party with Republican tendancies?

So, can you elaborate on your comment? I don't think race is a factor in this election, however, I think some on the left and the AP are trying to make it a factor.
