With Democrats like Hillary, who needs Republicans?
"They cling to vote on the basis of guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them..."
If you get to the heart of what Obama was saying, that people are manipulated into voting on the basis of issues unrelated to their political interests, how much truer a statement can you get?
Why else have the GOP candidates for decades talked about immigrants, god and the NRA, stirring up blue-collar voters? Would they win those votes if they admitted what they really had planned?
And it's worked. These folks have voted against their self-interest. So now, Hillary Clinton, who owes Rush Limbaugh for her margin of victory in Texas and Ohio primaries, is once again playing the Republican game, has once again out-Republicaned the Republican in this race.
