Hillary wouldn't win in the south today.
She would win some states.
I don't understand where everybody gets that idea.
Hillary's not even a native Southerner. She's originally from Illinois, and she became well-known as a carpetbagger Senator from New York. Her only connection to the South is Bill Clinton.
That's good enough for many voters. Both Bushes weren't native Southerners either.
Bush 41 wasn't considered a Southerner. Hence why he did so poorly in the South against Southerner Clinton.
Bush 43 did everything he could to promote a Southern image, the opposite of what Hillary did in carpetbagging her way to New York.
Many voters will still think Bill will ahve a huge influence in a Hilalry Clinton Presidency, and thus vote for Hillary since Bill is a native Southerner.
Al Gore was a real native Southerner and lost every Southern state.
His views weren't southern in the 2000 election.
