Even mediocre POTUs turnouts equal a walk in the park for POTUS Hillary Clinton.

Yeah that's what Christie's opponent thought too. Keep whistling past the graveyard. Hillary is an awful candidate.

"Take Hispanics alone: Every point of white share you lose, you have to win Hispanics by 4 to 5 points more" to make up for it, Schale said. "In '08, we knew if we really focused on keeping whites above 40 (percent), we couldn't lose. To me, that makes more sense than always trying to cobble out a tight win. And at some point we are going to max out (with) Hispanics.""
This Schale guy hasn't gotten the word that Hispanic votes count more than other votes now. One Hispanic vote is worth several whites. That's why Republicans will lose the presidency from now until the end of time unless they welcome illegal aliens.

Republicans can't win the Presidency with just white (Christian, heterosexual) men. I guess they haven't figured that out yet....

I will be amused as hell when President Hillary Clinton is inaugurated- with First Gentleman Bill Clinton standing beside her (leering at any babe in sight).

And she will get this White Male's vote.

Democrats know they have a "white male problem" hence their efforts to shore up support among others including but not limited to: gays, lesbians, white women, women in general, progressives/liberals and of course Hispanics.

HC and other Democrats are counting on the same play book that got Obama elected twice; concentrating on urban and ring suburban areas where you find such voters.

True, Dems focus on the majority of the voters.

Democrats can't win with the black and gay vote that barely adds up to 14% of the population and a part of the young white female vote. That's why they are for open borders and bringing in milions of immigrants a year.

Democrats win by division. Dividing men and women, dividing the races, diving nationalities, poor vs rich with the middle class caught in between etc.
