Seeing the curtain slowly but steadily descend on their socialist reign has apparently scared a few well-known Democrat analysts into publishing a plan to re-elect Barack Obama. Reading it,one can almost hear the socialist anthem,“The Internationale.”
The “Path to 270” (Pt270) plan denies the realities of the very demographics upon which it is based. Its only honest feature is an acknowledgement that White people are not going to vote for Democrats any time soon.
Pt270 believes Obama can magically cut Democrat loses among college graduates to 15 percent instead of the 30 percent beating they got in 2010,when unemployment among college graduates was 4.2 percent.
A Gallup poll of recent college graduates finds 11 percent unemployed or underemployed,which is two percent higher than the national average. It would be an amazing feat to keep Democrats’loses down to last year’s 30 percent level among this group.
Pt270 next delusion has Obama and the Democrats abandon any to appeal to Whites without college degrees – who make up 72 percent of all White voters – and replace them with the 28 percent who have college degrees. Aside from the lopsided numbers comparing,only 49 percent of college grads self-identify as liberals.
The plan next describes that it is necessary for Obama to lose the White vote by “only” 17 points (58-41 percent) as John Kerry did in 2004. Obama’s 12 point loss margin (55-42) among White voters was only good enough to get him a 7.2 percent winning margin overall. But in last year’s midterm elections,Democrats (who served as his unwilling surrogates) took a beating among White voters. Pulling out a victory looks like a tall order,if not an outright impossibility.
Perhaps the most important piece of data left out by the authors of Pt270 is….
