I would have agreed before this whole Trayvon Martin thing fired up.

This stuff is sending white voters running away from the Democrats in droves. It’s the same dynamic that drove Richard Nixon to two national landslide victories.

Few candidates were less engaging or appealing than Nixon.
Yet with the cities on fire, legions of white voters turned to him as the safe alternative.

Except white voters are a lower percentage than they were in Nixon's time, right? Maybe this could make the Hispanics more skeptical of Obama though if the media stops calling Zimmerman "white." Problem is these issues are forgotten so fast and unlike the contraception deal, the Republicans can't exactly bring up Zimmerman in a campaign ad.
