Hillary Clinton's White Male Voter Problem - NationalJournal.com

This part is instructive:

"Steve Schale worked on all three campaigns. He said it makes more sense to increase support from whites just a little bit than trying to boost support from minority groups a lot. "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.""

The democratic party has lost the white male vote. No point in chasing after them.

Perhaps the majority, but some will still vote for her.

We just need to convince more white females that democrats hate them for being white and are trying to replace them too. If the females come over, the Democrat party collapses overnight . Females and their posterity will fare a lot better with the conservatives. Republicans should just cater to white females.

Agreed. It's been obvious since at least the Clinton days that the Democrats do not value the white vote.

Her white male problem is named Little Bill. Big Bill always had trouble keeping him in line.

They seem to value the white female vote. Why should democrats waste time and energy courting voters who will never support them. Romney was right in his 47% comment. We just live in an age where honesty and humility are seen as negatives in politics.

I'd predict many women will be turned off by Hillary. Women can be some of the worst towards other women.

No one with any background, knowledge or for that matter intelligence would ever vote for Hillary. Do the research.
