We heard a lot of hope from the left that Hillary will win a historic landslide in 2016.
This would indeed be historic because not since 1904(1928 the GOP did but 1924 was a three way race) has the party that held the WH for two terms increase both its percent of the popular vote and absolute number of votes when running for a third term (even FDR got fewer total votes in 1940 than in 1936). 1904 was some what special. McKinnley had just been assassinated and TR was the President. Kind of like 1964.
But the odd argument goes something like this. Hillary being a white woman will get more votes than Obama did. It is odd, because Dems are admitting that a certain percentage of their base is racist. In fact they seem to be suggesting that there are a lot of racist feminists in the Dem party. People who wont vote for a black guy, but would vote for a white woman.
Of course it begs the question, if Hillary was so great, why did she lose to Obama in the first place?
