By doing better with white Democrats, especially older folks. Which shouldn't be much of a problem once the Clintons, Ed Rendell, Evan Bayh, Ted Strickland, Al Gore, John Edwards, and lots of other prominent white Democrats are out there campaigning for him instead of complaining about how he didn't that well with white voters in the primary.

Now that I have turned Independent, I would love to see the looks on their faces if she announced her Independent run for the WH.

Good thing the only people who refer to him as a messiah are Clinton supporters and Republicans, then.

Nice work with the Hussein thing. Keep pushing that.  He's obviously a terrorist.

I only looked at the states Jerome listed, which didn't include states like Illinois where Obama most definitely won the white vote, and states like New York and Arkansas where Clinton had a home team advantage. Which is fair. Although if I were Jerome I would've left off New Jersey as well, since a big chunk of Clinton's white vote advantage there almost certainly came because she represents the neighboring state in the Senate.

Yes, as a WA state voter, Obama had ZERO trouble with the white vote here, "Hard-Working" or otherwise.

What is so sneaky is, what Jerome et all is doing is taking ONE section of the white vote, and trying to apply this blanket rule, that Obama can't win whites?

They do this in conjunction with WEIRD ass conjectures like: Obama wins 90% of the black vote and that shows a problem....

Then, they twist the two statments together, and come up with their latest "Obama is unelectable" argument?

But, with Obama winning NC by enough to make sure he can't lost the popular vote EVEN IF they seat FL and MI intact, it is the only argument they have left?

The clock is running out, and this is the last hail mary pass.

first of all, those states were all before jerry wright. Second, we are never going to win Nebraska, Kansas, Wyoming, Idaho, North Dakota, and Utah, which have all not gone Dem since Lyndon Johnson '64. he only won those states because they have gone GOP for so long that the few Dems that exist there figured "why not try someone other than the Clintons, who everyone else in the state hates" and no one expected Obama to honestly use those states to make his case, as we will never win them, so Hillary didn't show up there. If Wright had happened before those states, he could have lost those states.

Yes, I wonder if, at some point, some of the other posters here will look back and go...

Gee, maybe I should NOT have gone there?

On the diary you were referening to, Diamond Jay did imply, that the Black vote had too much influence...but he didn't stop there?

He THEN was speculating what could be done "to fix this problem?"

Someone suggested 3/5s of a vote, and that is the point I hope some of the other Clinton supporter felt a little squeamish at going there with him?

At least, being a life long democrat, I HOPE they felt squeamish.

Hey you six-weeks on MyDD, troll-rate anybody you don't like, pathetic excuse of a blogger -

I get so sick of you drive-by, malicious troll-raters.
You expect people to listen to you, but plug your own ears.

Truly pathetic.

PS -

You don't make the above comment any less stereotyping by putting "racist" in quotes.  
You are doing exactly what you accuse others of doing.

But I guess you don't have the ability to see that.
