By win, I mean a plurality, not necessarily a majority. For reference, whites voted for McCain 55-43 in 2008. 

I'd say No. I just don't see a 6-7% swing to Obama among whites occuring unless the GOP nominates a really bad candidate.

The last time the Democrats won the white vote was LBJ in 1964, right?
