Good article

Very good article, HM. Thx for the ping.

I did have a problem with this line though...

In other words, if McCain and Romney had only come across in a more conservative and assertive manner, and had appealed to more white voters, they probably would have won.

McCain and Romney lost because they didn't fight hard enough. In fact, I would say that Romney had it made until he choked in the 2nd debate with Obama. Romney was a nice guy and that's what killed it for him.

Fighting for the right to save the country requires every bit as much fight and courage as it must to pick up a rifle and go to the front lines.

McCain is a playboy and Romney is a nice Mormon boy.

Both are, to quote Trump, LOSERS.

Frey comments that Trump “appeals to a vein of the U.S. electorate that will remain a significant voting bloc for several election cycles to come: older whites.”

Whites are still a monumental 75% of the vote.

The Latino Bund propaganda inflates its numbers to appear as if they are a "voting bloc." Stupid pols buy into it.

When Repubs swept the 2014 midterm, Fox's Brit Hume said latino votes were not a factor anywhere....the significant vote was over-50 whites.
