Often considered the quintessential "Reagan Democratic" county (even though it's a dumb term), it's often been used as a bellwether of how the typical working-class Rustbelt voter swings. Obama won it by 8.5% in 2008; will he carry it again?

I thought Macomb was white-collar middle class.

Eh, it's the classic bellwether county of blue-collar America. And yes, "Reagan Democrat" is a stupid term.

Mondale and Carter won much of "blue-collar America."
