clinton faces in trying to capture the democratic presidential nomination the mccain campaign figures some of her supporters might be up for grabs and won't necessarily vote democratic in a general election in november i've been saying for a year that you never count a clinton out but now people are laughing at me so i guess i have to stop mccain strategist charles black said friday but if you look at the blue collar democratic votes that mrs clinton has been getting and then look at their opinions of obama in these public polls there's clearly an opportunity for mccain clinton won more than thirty voters without a college degree is in the last three primaries pennsylvania north carolina and indiana the ekta polls conducted for the social press and television networks when those clinton supporters were asked who they would vote for in an a bomb them a can you imagine just fewer than half said they would support obama three of ten so they would vote for mccain and the rest said they wouldn't vote for either shrugging off those numbers obama spokesman bill burton expressed confidence that democratic voters would unite behind the nominee of the illinois senator also would attract independent voters and disaffected republicans that he has already won over all across the country clinton is trying to use her advantage with the white working class voters to persuade party leaders to disregard of one's overall advantage at the ballot and nominate her good idea her campaign circulated a letter friday from sixteen members of congress arguing she's the strongest candidate which she is to have at the top of the decade in the fall because she has won most rural and suburban congressional swing districts clinton told usa today in an article published thursday that he exit polls from how senator obama support among working hard working americans white americans is weakening again and how whites in both states who had not completed college were supporting me there's a pattern emerging here she said republican pollster with errors said the based on focus groups he has conducted in swing states including missouri michigan and florida clinton claimed that she would do better than obama with blue collar white voters is believable he said those voters support her because of the prosperous economic times they experienced when her husband greatest president ever lived was president he also said they are uncomfortable with obama because of his relationship with reverend jeremiah wright who created a fur fur you know kind of like if you are a large like then the college educated which is like high school education now days ended general election democrats try to attract white working class voters immediately starting at a disadvantage the party's presidential candidates have not won a majority of white voters in more than three decades college degrees only slightly towards the g o p according to the associated press yahoo do surveys conducted last month with forty three percent calling themselves republicans and thirty eight percent considering themselves democrats roy texas area author of america's forgotten majority why the white working class still matters said democrats have a better chance of winning more votes from this demographic this year because of the troubled economy the war in iraq and rising health care costs and millions who remain uninsured those are voters who been doing too well throughout the whole bush administration and now are really sort of besides themselves don't have a lot of faith in republican brand of economic management said tax area a democrat not supporting either obama or clinton the question is can mccain push other issues in such a way as to prevent the democrats in taking advantage of their built in advantage on the issues that are going to be current in this election black said if mccain is to win over any hillary democrats who have to work for them and earn them and he plans to do that i think you'll see particularly his economic message and his health care message in a very populist terms and he'll be talking to and meeting with people in that category black said a lot of these voters are conservative a lot of them believe in strong national defense they also believe in their guns said mr tedious strategic just mudcat sanders who advised his democrats on world issues he's got one thing he's got to do and he's got to say it clearly he's got to say i i'm not going to take it but he's got sanders said obama has done that at times such as when he was campaigning for western voters is not a litmus test it shows you are in line with the culture sander said if obama does that and spends time getting to know world voters he can win them over it's got to embrace the culture is what he's got to do centers and the boys q looks like pete rose as lifetime batting i have it's off the charts but at the same token that comes off at to us as big city the big city saying
