sesanders: "Hillary spoke facts...numbers, demographics which are suggesting that whites working people have been increasingly voting for her."
Um, no. Maybe you didn't read the article? Hillary seemed to be suggesting that hard-working, working-class people are the same as white people. It's not just what she said, it's the way she said it...the seeming implication. Even giving her the benefit of the doubt, it's sloppy.
It should also be noted that the drop in Obama's votes among whites has always corresponded to the time that the Rev. Wright scandal has been the worst. Obama bounced back among whites after the scandal died down.
