The race factor among white voters

Apropos our discussion on Obama, Bradley effect, etc: what do you
folks make of this bit of data from the NYT blogs:

The Race Factor Among White Voters (Based on exit polls)

               Said race was
               important
               Clinton Obama
               ------- -----
Vote in:        %       %
California      53      44
Georgia         58      30
Massachusetts   60      36
Missouri        65      30
New Jersey      71      29

What does this mean? That white Democrats in NJ who felt that race
mattered meant that they didn't want to vote for a black guy?! Can
this be true or am I misreading this?
