I suspect there’ll be some outrage at Hillary’s latest words
But they only make me wonder what she can be possibly thinking. And it’s really kinda sad to see.
Via USA Today:
Hillary Rodham Clinton vowed Wednesday to continue her quest for the Democratic nomination, arguing she would be the stronger nominee because she appeals to a wider coalition of voters — including whites who have not supported Barack Obama in recent contests.
“I have a much broader base to build a winning coalition on,” she said in an interview with USA TODAY. As evidence, Clinton cited an Associated Press article “that found how Sen. Obama’s support among working, hard-working Americans, white Americans, is weakening again, and how whites in both states who had not completed college were supporting me.”
“There’s a pattern emerging here,” she said.
The coalition of voters supporting Obama includes a distinct majority of voters under the age of 60, which outnumbers the voters over 60 by a sizable margin. Which is how he has gained more popular votes and more delegates. So who REALLY has the ‘broader’ base?
She suggests she can yet ‘build’ a winning coalition, yet has not consistently demonstrated that ability after being an announced candidate for more than 15 months. It is especially odious to hear her specific wording, to wit “working, hard-working Americans, white Americans” as it suggests that ‘working’ and ‘hard-working’ are synonymous with ‘white’. Further, the logic part doesn’t square: if there’s a 30% gap in white support but that’s more than offset by an 80% gap in Black American support, then his coalition, before any further building, already exceeds hers.
And then there’s the assumption that white voters in one state or region share the same sentiments as other states or regions. Which can be proven false by years of evidence. The racial polarity of voters in Mississippi, for example, has been clear since Fannie Lou Hamer tried to gett the Mississippi Freedom delegation seated at the 1964 Democratic convention. But that doesn’t describe the voting biases of the New York electorate, nor Pennsylvania’s, nor North Carolina’s. And, since white Americans vastly outnumber Black Americans in each of the 50 states, his winning of more than 60% of the contests to date actually indicates her ‘base’ is defecting in sufficient numbers to grant him the overall lead by every honest metric.
It may be true that Obama’s experienced some weakening among the demographic she describes, especially after the media carried her water with the Wright controversy and Obama’s acknowledged mistake of overgeneralizing in his description of rural voters provided to an urban audience. But is that weakening permanent? She has no proof of that.
One risks being labelled an elitist to also point out that people with added education - trained to think more critically - prefer Obama. Or to note the opposite: the least educated prefer her. There may, in some states, be a numerical advantage in that at a specific moment. But doesn’t it also suggest that they cannot be persuaded to change their opinions because they’re too stuck in their thinking to judge that Obama may be preferable over McCain despite their current preference of Clinton over Obama?
That’s pretty presumptuous and elitist, too.
The clearest emerging pattern is that Clinton’s arguments grow more disingenuous and more overt in suggesting there’s an insurmountable racial divide. Yet while that polarity has varied both ways in the base she defines as her own, the most consistent pattern through the primaries has been her steady loss of more and more Black American support.
The best available metric to determine electability is to weigh the polls state-by-state, with the two candidates matched against McCain. And so far, any edge by Clinton has been demonstrably minimal. It’s also apparent that McCain’s had difficulty polling above 45% in any case, so he remains the weakest candidate of the three.
Of course, when virtually every metric works against an ongoing Clinton candidacy, it’s understandable that she has to reach to niche metrics to make any case at all. But she does so at great risk, especially to her own aspirations should she ever reach above the Senate again. She may not be a racist, but there’s already been harm to the reputation she and her husband once enjoyed within the Black American demographic.That and the hostility that’s occurred between the ardent supporters of these two candidates may do more damage to her than to the Democratic party.
On reflection, though I once respected Bill Clinton as a shrewd campaigner, my opinion has changed. By seeking to be Everyman and digging out narrow wins, some of the hostility that gets generated now appears to be at least partially self-generated, not just now in Hillary’s campaign, but throughout his political career. They both lseem to enjoy the inside fight a little too much, perhaps turning some potential allies into foes while simultaneously doing the opposite. Maybe by fighting a game of inches for too many years, they’ve lost the capacity to win a few by miles.

Maybe Obama should state:
Apparently, HIllary gets the idiot vote......
that is about as good as her trying to claim that Obama gets the "elite" vote.
I am glad that she said it. It just shows they want it to be about race. I know for a fact that a lot of white women - working class have voted for Hillary in the Primary. That is why you have a primary - they are not wrong - it was just their choice. However, I also know that those same women - will canvass, phone bank, and hit the streets running for Barrack Obama as the Democratic CAndidate.
Hillary has been a non-issue. Just making herself look disparate.

By totallyMay 8, 2008 - 9:11amScorch this 2.0 version of the democratric party
My democratic party has got me on the verge of vomiting.
It's a party thtat's been hijacked by teenager's and black's on a mission to get a moca into the whitehouse.
Really.......... a system set up by and for Jesse Jackson (the caucus system.) Democracy????
A system where 4% of the democratic voter's show up? Democracy?
A campaign where the black man has rabidly turned on the only Administration to care about their plight in about 25 years?
A Democratic party that has told me and my fellow Floridian's "we don't care about you or your vote"
Rule's are Rule's (sounds like a line form the Brady Bunch.) That's Democracy? That's what George Bush does....not my beloved democratic party!
I've been a loyal dem my entire life and I'd rather see this rotting corpse marxist far left version crash and burn to the ground rather than give in to Obama and his empty suit rhetoric.
Go on Hillary. Run run run. Scorch this party down to the ground. It deserves what it gets. It doesn't deserve what you and Bill brought to it back in the 90's (peace and prosperity.)
Let's put another inexperienced guy in the oval office so he can learn on the job just like George Bush.
Blahhhhh..... ahhhhh....ok. I've stuck my finger down my throat and feel so much better now!

The guy who would have challenged George Bush with the U.S. military when he was stealing a presidency.
A guy who acknowledges the great presidency of Bill Clinton (whether you like it or not.) It deserves to be rewarded. Not put on a shelf by a bunch of idealistic children worrying about thier 15 credit caseload or some professor still wearing earth shoes and reminiscing about Bob Dillon.
I'm the real democrat who grew up in Pittsburgh ( a yellow dog democrat if you know what that is.)
Not the flavor of the month democrat's such as you guys.
you make me want to cry. You have no respect and thus you'll see if your guy gets the presidency, what respect you'll get back from him.

But Nader did more damage, vote wise, to Kerry than Clark did. But I guess the Clintons did that too. A library in Arkansas. Actual votes. Hmm. Conspiracy? (adjusts tiinfoil hat)

Why am I not surprised that the point of my posts went soaring right over the head of the Hillary demographic...?

It will help her transition back to being a republican again go much more smoothly with allies like that. She already has inroads with Rupert Murdoch.

By SJerseyIndyMay 8, 2008 - 1:26pmGood thank you fu bush2
Now that Hillary is apparently gone we can focus on the war criminal in the WH. And his successor. That's what I've advocated all along. But your post is about Hillary not Bush. Not about his admitted approval of torture.
Arkansas has a Presidential library. Bill Clinton is from Arkansas. Yet, he insisted his presidential library should be in his home state.Coincidence? I think not.
Wesley Clark supports him, and Hillary as do many other retired Generals and Admirals.yet he visited his library. He publicly advocated for the candidate he supports. Does the evil ever end?.
Obama does not have the experience Clinton or McCain does. Thats a fact. How many times has he visited the troops in a war zone? Or in their hospital beds?He is not world traveled like JFK, RFK or MLK. I like Obama. I hope he wins.

By CandymarlMay 8, 2008 - 12:49pmI'm more outraged at the job losses
and the home foreclosures. And the fact that folks can't afford to feed their kids. And the dead Haitians and Iraqis and GIs and stuff. And that pesky war thing that Pelosi is about to give Bush billions of dollars for. But that's just me.

So let me get this straight. If you’re a white school taught American, a African American as opposed to a down and out dumbass with no amplitude to get a job living in the welfare comfort zone. These are the people Obama need to get as a base because THEY RUN THE COUNTRY. Really!??! So her argument is that she owns the dumbasses and he has the elitists??? That’s what its sounds like she is saying!! Not me. I am a African American and I am educated. I am ashamed that -well not ashamed. Just mad that this country basically is run by "us" I loop myself in it because I am an American, but with tat said there are more stupid people out there than educated ones (not just school taught but with a lick of common sense). And yes they out number the ones who are critical thinkers. But I am not to believe that just because you are not college taught, you can’t think on your own two feet and pick the right candidate.
The ones who listen to Hannity, Beck, Limbaugh, true liberal-phoebes who rely on someone else thinking for them. (Mental handouts if you will) Hillary's last take on this can be seen as anything but non- divisive, but downright desperate. And that's a serious understatement. I used to respect her (well I didn’t think even she would play the race card). It’s ironic that Obama has not stated that at all. Let's wait and see if Operation Chaos will bail her out now.

By fourteenacesMay 8, 2008 - 1:02pmNO Spot On Ticket For Hillary
I don't think Hillary should be on the ticket for a number of reasons, chief among them her lying about her accomplishments and sniper fire. Senator Jim Webb of Va. would make a really good VP.

If Hillary lied then try this on......................In twenty years he did not know his preacher was a racist. Hillary never attended a racist church.

because Hillary calls people dumbasses, Belittles their religious beliefs and their hunting habits.Oh wait, that was Obama in a well publicized speech. But let's not talk about that. No one will bail Hillary out She's toast. But she has millions of voting supporters. But let's trash them and her and tell them to stay home and we don't need your votes. That'll beat McCain in November. Yup.

Good because she keep loaning herself millions. There is a rumor that Obama might pay back what she put into her campaign if she ends this nonsense now.
But if her supporters will cove the bill then he can put that money to better use.
