Rock solid South with the exception of Florida’s astronut...
She addressed this directly.
If the republicans are the "racist southern party", via Nixon's "Southern Strategy", several questions must be asked.
How did Jimmah Carter win? It was only TWO years after Nixon left office.
How come Bill Clinton "won" the solid south in 1992?
How did Obama win a solid red state like Indiana in 2008?
The answer is of course that nobody can accurately predict voting patterns.
Sure, the democrats are the party of the liberal factions, minorities, blacks, unions, illegal hispanics, gays, pro-aborts, etc.
BUT, when you get down to brass tacks, the democrats have absolutely NOTHING to offer the hard working WHITE American.
As in nada.
Now with gay "marriage" being off the table, so to speak, why would any white person ever vote democrat?
Fine, they can pander to the factions, but for the moment, white Americans are the biggest voting bloc.
And with amnesty, and the example set by Obama, the fact is "whites" are pretty damn sick and tired of being blamed for everything wrong.
Even the stupidest democrat must realize this.
It makes me weary to read all of the stories about how repubs must "learn to appeal to whatever group".
No, the REAL issue is how do democrats appeal to the majority, which happens to be white.
They've got nothing.
