'The increased Republicanism of the whites' would not be a problem with Clinton against Dole. Gore was not considered a southerner and Bush was an ideal candidate for the region. John Kerry of course did worse than the average Democrat and Obama's blackness cost him about 5-10 points among southern whites. Had the dems nominated better candidates they would have done better.
Against McCain, Hillary or Edwards would have won anywhere between 25-35% of deep southern whites.
