Hillary Clintons strength among white voters is the key to 2016and it spells nearly certain defeat and disaster for Republicans.
Culture will likely shape the 2016 presidential elections, and this is bad news for the Republican Party. Recent polls show Hillary Clinton running well among white voters overall, showing real strength among white non-evangelical Protestants, and running competitively among white Catholics. Trailing only among evangelicals, Clinton is poised to move beyond the upstairs-downstairs coalition that brought Barack Obama to the White House, and that continues to characterize his policies and presidency to this day.

“Every single poll makes it clear Clinton will win in a walk away.”
Polls taken before any primaries aren’t worth a bucket of warm spit!
Yes.
Why shouldn’t I be frightened of empty headed morons whose vote affects my life directly?
Why shouldn’t I be afraid of people who base their vote on a condom?
Why shouldn’t I be afraid of people who base their vote on the legality of murdering babies?
Why shouldn’t I be afraid of people who believe anything anyone tells them?
You tell me, because I just as soon not have anything to do with them at this point.
If Republican voters continue with the purist mentality and sit at home as they did during the last election cycle, then this article is spot on.
OH NO!! Not the purists!!! Those wascally conservatives who don’t like abortion and homosexual marriage and bailouts and shamnesty?! Stop the damn presses, because these purists are going to ruin another RINOs shot at the White House.
Of course, whenever the ‘purists’ do win and the RINOs like Dick Lugar and Bill Bolling and Mark Kirk jump ship to side with Democrats, and those Republican state legislators in Virginia who are now backing Warner for re-election... no, thats just pragmatism, you see. Can’t have any conservatives in office. They might embarrass all our great candidates! You know, like Tommy Thompson or Rick Berg or Pete Hoekstra or that eBay lady who had more money than God.
You see, this is Karl Rove’s party, and the purists cannot be allowed to prevent Karl and co from getting their Adelson and Chamber of Crony Capitalism bonuses. That’s just how it is. So accept Obamacare and accept all the left wing agendas. Just shut up and vote, ignorant Tea Partiers.

Who is the super ugly troll on the left? Ugh. Looks like she could grate cheese with her snaggletooth.
No matter whom the Democrats nominate in 2016, the Republican candidate must get at least 60% of the white vote to win.
That is not easy.
From memory - Reagan was the last guy to do that, in 1984, when he got 66%.
Romney got 59% of whites in 2012, and he still lost to Obama by 4%.
Most likely, Hillary would lose some of Obama’s massive ethnic support.
But, in my opinion, if we can't hit 60% of white voters in 2016, the GOP is going to lose the White House.
A lot won't vote for her - they'll just find enough fault with her opponent that they'll pave the way for her.
In the end, Hillary wont be winning the white vote, unless we do something really stupid, something so stupid that it is romneyesque”
I agree.
Right now, we don't have a campaign or even a nominee at this point. Her corruption and incompetence, especially while SOS, will come out in the course of a campaign as long as we don't get the GOP nominee saying dumb things like, “she was a fine SOS. We just disagree on the issues.” Or, even better, “you have nothing to fear from a Clinton presidency” while in the heat of a campaign!!!
We have a large number of conservative women in my family, and I'm seeing more and more of them come out around me. However I can easily tell you that as a single young man, I felt there was a seemingly overwhelming number who were radical leftists.
There are many wonderful American woman, they just don't get as much face time in the media as the leftist nut jobs do, same as the men. : D
Yup, whites are so easily guilted that they won’t vote for a conservative unless he is completely without fault.
You may have identified people that are in the dimorat party but you certainly haven’t identified ANY of the women I know
I am with Caipirabob.
And to chris37..... I believe there are a majority of women in America who you could be proud of...The lefties in the media just don’t want you to know about them.
The ordinary citizen (men and women) are much more decent and salt of the earth than your television or news out let will ever let you know
What I identified, very sadly, is the general type of women that I have met and/ or known over about the past 15-20 years.
Not just women that I have dated either, even my brother’s wife is a New York lib, fan of Jay Z and Bouncy, all that.
She’s well educated, a professional, but politically...moron.
I can count the amount of conservative women I have actually known in my life on three fingers, unless of course some simply didn’t tell me their leanings, or I didn’t know.
But in my experience, the vast, vast majority of women are drones.
My guess is that you live in the wrong part of the country. If you are in the north east then I can understand your frustration. But like the media concentration in that area that is most definitely NOT what the rest of the country is like
Most time spent in New Orleans and the rest spent in Florida, which really has a lot of looney people.
Early frontrunner for Dems has not won primaries and nomination but a handful of times in US history when it was a non incumbent POTUS primary season
Last time was 1960.
Hillary has negatives off the scales.....scandal laden history....unlikable chinny strident female and debates and interviews poorly
Her only hope is that Democrat constituency will vote or whomever it is.
Well we all know about New Orleans and their propensity for strangeness. Certain parts of Florida aren’t any better than the north east because of the transplants.
I feel for you if that is your exposure and it explains much. Just rest assured that there are a large number of good women still out there and they are working hard to change things
Yeah, no doubt.
What’s really worrisome to me is that I’m in Northwest Florida...the conservative part.
It’s changing quickly.
Pensacola is the Twilight Zone.
