Considering the South's long-term realignment in favor of the Republicans I was wondering if Hillary Clinton could be a better fit for the South than Obama was.

What about her chances of winning Arkansas? It's given that in case of, say, a 9% lead nationwide, Hillary is likely to win FL, NC, and VA.  But I think that Georgia is likelier to vote for Hillary.  For that Democrats need to step up efforts to register voters in the state, and for all my optimism I doubt they will recruit enough.

I voted yes because the question was worded too broadly…

yes, she could win 4 states: VA, FL, NC, GA…

but this seems unlikely. 

If she did win I think it would be on the strength of minority voters moreso than broader appeal to whites.
Hmm...too broadly?  I gave you the option to vote 'Other'.
