They need to look at the overall donations of all the dealerships -- if 95% of the ones staying open are donating to the GOP as well, then it makes sense that 95% of the closing dealerships are GOP supporters. Without these baseline numbers, the claims are meaningless.
Now if it turns out that a much higher chunk of the dealers staying open have donated to Democrats, then this might be worth looking into.

I would assume that most car dealership owners lean to the Republican side of things....but we'd need analysis of the full list of closing stores and those staying open.

I, too, am interested in the contributions of the dealers that remain. I won't be surprised if this has partisan implications because this supposedly-bipartisan president has taken every opportunity to promote racism, partisan-ism, and literally bend over for every other world leader in an attempt to sell-out national security... so I expect him to do whatever is necessary to continue to fuck up the lives and welfare of all who oppose his agenda. So far he's batting 1.000 at that.

Wouldn't it be safe to assume that most of the dealership's staying open are GOP supporters as well. From what I understand (and I don't know too much about politics) small business owners are republican leaning because of tax situations...
Seems a little ridiculous. But I did hear that same thing about the amount of GM dealerships compared to Honda and Toyota.. Makes sense that it wouldn't work out

...says the guy from the capital of all the blue states.
While using the reverse of the democrat's blame-Bush tactic might seem like what this is to you, please note that's not what I did. How 'bout debunking a "myth" or two about the qualifications of the people Obama appointed that are making the decisions about closing the dealerships rather than just attacking someone calling the facts what they are? Oh, you can't. So then blame people for the exact same tactic you just used.
I mentioned doubt about it being partisan and that I wouldn't be surprised. Here's why I wouldn't be surprised.

It sounds cool and all but I doubt some one would go through all the work of researching who donated to whom just to close them down for absolutely no gain.
why not? people seemed to think it was reasonable to blame Bush for everything.

yeah cause i obviously think that obama is god 
we should just blame the senators and house members because they come up with all these shitty laws and stuff for their own personal gain, and not the gain of the people.
and on a side note, bush caused 9/11
h:
we all know this mess was caused by clinton. lol
