Certainly, this shows a problem with implicit racism in both parties yet when two thirds are showing a problem (nearly 10 points ahead of the Democrats) that is more significant. Again, this isn't surprising considering that the bulk of the GOP base is in the South.
There is also this Pew Poll which mirrors the GSS data regarding interracial marriage.
Note the uptick again right around the time the president got elected.
So, what exactly is implicit racism? Well, take the survey and find out! Here were my results.
Your Result Your data suggest a slight automatic preference for European American compared to African American.
This comes as no surprise to me whatsoever. I'm curious as to how my five commenters would do on this survey...if they even agree to submit to it. That first screen will likely send them into fits of paranoia:)

Below is the interpretation of your IAT performance, followed by questions about what you think it means. The next page explains the task and has more information such as a summary of what most people show on this IAT.
Your Result
Your data suggest little to no automatic preference between African American and European American.
The interpretation is described as 'automatic preference for European American' if you responded faster when European American faces and Good words were classified with the same key than when African American faces and Good words were classified with the same key. Depending on the magnitude of your result, your automatic preference may be described as 'slight', 'moderate', 'strong', or 'little to no preference'.
Funny M how much you need outside validation rather than just being comfortable with yourself.
