This is just one poll, but it suggests that Clinton’s “advantage” among white working class voters is a mirage.

The key thing is, her advantage is among white working class folks *who are voting in the Democratic primary deciding between two Democrats*. Plus, her better polling in the primary just means that, if they’re choosing between her and Obama, and have chosen/are eligible to vote in the Democratic primary, they prefer her.

It’s partially self selection, partially a non-random sample, and it’s partially the wrong statistic. I mean, all of them are choosing to vote in the Democratic primary (self selection), some don’t have a choice which primary to vote in (non-random sampling). And, the measure we want is “will win more votes (from this demographic) when John McCain is the other choice”, not “who wins when (Clinton or Obama) is the other choice.”

This current cycle is turning into a choice between “mourning in America” for the lost glories of the past, versus picturing ourselves in a greatly altered world (due, in no small part, to our own behaviors) and figuring out how to just deal with it. Our politics swim in a vast flotsam of 3rd-world imports, crumbling infrastructure, militarism, and memories of cheap energy — that most of our leaders simply refer to as “our American way of life” that “we will fight to defend.”

And nobody who actually thinks that way is going to be voting for a “change” candidate. No matter who their running mate is.

I agree with Obama; Clinton or McCain are more of the same, with a different brand on their ass (or elephant). I can’t promise anyone that Obam WILL be better, but I prefer to give him a chance than to continue the way we are.
