If nothing much changes from 2012, look for another Democrat to take the White House.
That is a big IF.
The dems took the youth vote again in IA. The direction the country is going is what it is. The good ole boy system is dead for the most part in small town south as more and more are getting outed. kids coming up don't want to be part of it unlike their predecessors. They also are very active. It's still a work in progress but millennials are what they are and boomers are dying off.
Shillary already pandering to the Latinos. Most newspapers and tv chains are claiming Hillary la Mera mera bandolera to represent all s in the nation.
ing sick and pathetic the way Hillary camp is trying to brainwash them s.they might as well offer free chimichangas for every vote.
And they all also talking about trump.
That said if Rubio goes up against Shillary it's be interesting
The GOP is in a hard place. Their hard-line anti-gay marriage stance doesn't really resonate for people under a certain age, it just makes them come off as irrational and hateful. That is just ONE of the socially conservative policies that put youngin's off, or so my old ass is told.
The case I think the Dems need to make is that they are the party of fiscal responsibility. Capture the socially liberal but fiscally conservative bunch, push for more balanced budgets, and that will be the last nail in the coffin of the GOP as a national party.
Republicans used to be the party of fiscal responsibility, but that has been shown to be a myth, due to the disastrous application of supply-side economic policies, i.e. "cut taxes and the economy will automatically grow so much that any tax cut will automatically be revenue neutral". Policies that have pretty much discredited that concept altogether for anyone who studies such things in a serious way.
Do that, and the GOP will be relegated to wandering in the wilderness, until they can find their ass with one of their hands.
"irrational and hateful"
... because they know, all of them, that's what works in their ed up base. hate, fear, paranoia, xenophobia, racism, abortion, LGBT, Bible humping, Christian supremacy, while denying science, rationality, refusing serious governance for all the people while enabling/protecting/enriching their paymasters.
Lol, youth unwittingly voted in Obamacare. Suckers
up to age 26, they can be on their parents' plan, a great deal.
