Report: Obama Reelection Campaign Will “Explicitly Abandon White Working Class Voters”…

So long, bitter clingers.
Via NY Times:
Comments & pings are closed.For decades, Democrats have suffered continuous and increasingly severe losses among white voters. But preparations by Democratic operatives for the 2012 election make it clear for the first time that the party will explicitly abandon the white working class.
All pretense of trying to win a majority of the white working class has been effectively jettisoned in favor of cementing a center-left coalition made up, on the one hand, of voters who have gotten ahead on the basis of educational attainment — professors, artists, designers, editors, human resources managers, lawyers, librarians, social workers, teachers and therapists — and a second, substantial constituency of lower-income voters who are disproportionately African-American and Hispanic.
It is instructive to trace the evolution of a political strategy based on securing this coalition in the writings and comments, over time, of such Democratic analysts as Stanley Greenberg and Ruy Teixeira. Both men were initially determined to win back the white working-class majority, but both currently advocate a revised Democratic alliance in which whites without college degrees are effectively replaced by well-educated socially liberal whites in alliance with the growing ranks of less affluent minority voters, especially Hispanics.
The 2012 approach treats white voters without college degrees as an unattainable cohort. The Democratic goal with these voters is to keep Republican winning margins to manageable levels, in the 12 to 15 percent range, as opposed to the 30-point margin of 2010 — a level at which even solid wins among minorities and other constituencies are not enough to produce Democratic victories.





so will race warfare replace the current class warfare?
“The 2012 approach treats white voters without college degrees as an unattainable cohort.”
That’s right. If you don’t have a college degree, then you didn’t get the full indoctrination into the Liberal Democrat aka Communist ranks.
Except white public sector union thugs.
Obama isn’t a racist by the way.
This is one Librarian (complete with a Master’s degree) who won’t be voting for this jerk, so let him court me…
LMAO…The Tea Party Rules!
Btw Zip…that’s quick on the draw…Rush basically opened his show about this, he’s still talking about it now. ~ Good Work!
So, the master plan is gather enough racist, or elitist fucks to win, and bugger the rest of the country?
Wow, what a guy
Just who does this idiot think put him in office in 2008. Does he think he has a majority of non-white voters to get re-elected. Good luck with that you POS.
Start packing now cause you’re 15min is up.
Voter FRAUD….Watch there will be so much duplication and fraud in this next coming election.
They’re depending upon the indoctrinated, the enslaved, the illegal aliens, and massive voter fraud.
Watch for the Dems to pull a “Franken” and declare a win regardless of the real votes.
It has come down to those who work vs those who receive free government cheese. ( And I include most college professors in the free government cheese category, because I don’t think you can count what they do as “work.”)
The good news for those that work is that when the government collapses due to insolvency, they will at least know how to survive. The leeches are in for some hard times indeed.
” . . . professors, artists, designers, editors, human resources managers, lawyers, librarians, social workers, teachers and therapists . . .”
Absolutely staggering that supposedly educated, creative, thinking, intellectually sophisticated people are so brainwashed and blind to the failures of this leftist administration.
GOP has an opportunity to communicate with these people about principles that matter. So, which candidate has the best shot as reaching these minds?
This is why they preach multiculturalism. The melting pot will always defeat the communists.
Still counting on the Plantation of Dependency and the Union Goons.
This guy is toast. He’s taking all the wrong paths to get what he needs done. He’ll never make it now.
In other words, the taxpayers.
Another indicator that Obie is counting on massive voter fraud, part. by illegal aliens for reelection.
“….the party will explicitly abandon the white working class.”

Racism.

I can hear him now ” the crackers won’t vote for me anyways so fuck ‘um “
Say it ain’t so Joe (Biden). Wasn’t this Joe Biden’s specialty? White working class people?
“without college degrees ..” It sounds so flattering. CA computer engineer and fine artist with muliple degrees that shutters at Socialism and its appendages (Obama.)
We knew this when Robert Reich said that the Stimulus Funds were not for white workers.
Barry’s Class War is in full swing. They aren’t even trying to hide it anymore.
His OWS Jihadists are just the start.
And like lemmings the unions will continue to throw themselves into the sea and drown
I’m thinking the ‘boos and jeers greeting’ that sasquatch got from the nascar crowd schooled the o-hole regime pretty good.
They can not ignore such a simple direct message. That we see through them and are sick of their b.s.
Don’t you just love our “post partisan, post race” President?
Tha Fraud is unraveling.
@Major Glory
Same here – software engineer / graphic artist / writer / juris doctor.
I love renaissance men. It’s too bad we’re straight.
So, it’s to be the white leftist elites and their colored servants against the rest of us.
Kind of explains why Holder is suing so many states that have passed anti-illegal laws and why Obama and Janet are busy cherry picking which illegals they want to deport vs. those millions they have no intention of deporting.
Regarding Obama’s dismissal of white, working class voters, he might be surprised at how many white, college educated, non-liberal arts voters hate his guts.
It amazes me that Obama has never even tried to represent American citizens as a whole, he didn’t even give it lip service. His entire presidency has been one division and demonization of ordinary citizens. He placed all of “us” at the back of the bus and then screamed racisim every time we chose not to stay there.
Aren’t unions like SEIU & AFL-CIO full of white working class voters?
Makes target aquisition easier…
I’ve been fearing the Franken Maneuver for some time. It’s who counts the votes that matters. Any of you Zip fans know the current status of the Soros-funded, “Operation SoS (Secretary of State)?”. It would be interesting to know the background of any recently elected secretary of state of the different states. Anyone out there have a new SoS recently voted in, this year or last, in your state?
Kat, our SoS in Fl was appointed by the Repub Gov. So I think this state is OK.
O’s bringing on the race wars. As a white working class woman with a BS degree, I can say this may not work out quite the way he thinks it will.
As of early 2011, Republicans hold 28 of the 47 Secretaries of State offices nationwide. Of those 28 seats, 21 are elected positions. Over the past 4 years, the RSSC has been a partner in these races across the country:

The race war is apparently on.
Time to choose sides. I think Dems are in for a shock come 2012.
Hey, I’m white and I have a college degree, and they had better consider me “unattainable!”
@T2M –Roger that. Just looked it up. No Florida STATE Franken maneuvers for us this year. Wonder about individual county election supervisors. Too insignificant for Soros to bother?
Timing with Nascar and all… “Fuck them crackers!”
I hope all those liberal professors like Mexican food……when the economy tanks, that’s who will be feeding them…
LMFAO……they tried to woo them with a “country music appreciation” night at the WH, and had Michelle open the raceday and was booed…..who cares
Kat, I don’t know about counties but I am a little worried about how many of those 28 are RINO’s, we know we can’t trust THEM.
I don’t think any election is considered insignificant for Soros, he wants ALLLLL the power.
Oh we have been abandoned for quite a while now…its only when the millionaire lawyers need votes do they get chummy with the regulars…
All those professionals: HR people, teachers, artists, etc, are all in the position to be able to brainwash others.
Letting down his hair and coming out of the closet…
Seems like political suicide to me.
Blacks are 11% of the population and they already get 92-98% of their vote, so not much upside there.
There are only so many communists in the country, and their % of the population is not likely to increase.
Hispanics are not and never will be as beholden to the D’s as Blacks are. R’s get between 30-45% of their vote now, and as the more they assimilate into our culture the more their economic interests line up with the Republican platform.
If you don’t work for the government, you’re not living on welfare, and you’re not a communist, why would you vote D?
The D’s are very much in danger of becoming a permanent minority, as a direct result of their extreme leftwing ideology. Outside of college towns, state capital cities/DC/college towns, and majority-minority districts, they may soon cease to exist.
The simple fact is: if you work and pay taxes, your interests are represented by R’s. D’s exist only to tax you and redistribute your income to somebody else.
@Major Glory, @hoodaticus
Ditto – another college educated white – a B.S. in mining engineering and a J.D. I didn’t vote for Chairman Zero the first time, and I sure as hell won’t vote for him this time.
Do not underestimate the voter fraud and Chicago style shenanigans the progressive moonbats will employ. Racial divisiveness will be a huge part of the 2012 strategy for Maobama. This OWS crap is going to be re-invigorated in the spring and it is going to get ugly. There is going to be orchestrated civil unrest coupled with a worsening of the economy and higher unemployment. It is going to be a powder keg and the Obamabots will be more than happy to light the fuse.
Keep em dependent and they’ll vote D for the next 200 years right zer0?
Right now, we’re looking at an official unemployment rate north of 9%, and if you factor in the underemployed and people who have given up, probably twice that.
Right now, we have 53% of the population paying taxes while most of the other 47% actually receives money.
Right now, thanks to OWS, the streets in our major cities are descending into anarchy.
I never thought I’d say this, but….Civil War is coming.
Susan/Major Glory/Hoodaticus/Noelegy/MikeS:
Yup, same here, white chick with a Masters, and damn if they’ll get my vote.
Come on, in your heart you know that Pat Paulsen would have been a better President than Barack Obama (and Pat Paulsen has been dead for 14 years).
