With Republican party leaders so constrained by ideological blinders that none of their positions is likely to produce gains among non-white minorities, especially Hispanics, the GOP is finding it has no real alternative but to revert to a “white voter” strategy.

To some extent, it’s working. The party’s opposition to President Obama’s agenda — particularly his cap-and-trade energy proposal and health care reform plan — is resonating strongly with disaffected white Democratic voters. Republican grievances about Obama, combined with race-baiting commentary from the far-right ideologues who have become some of the most dominant voices of the modern GOP, have led to a precipitous drop in the president’s approval ratings among whites.

    The white GOP folks are so desperate of getting the whole pie back from the Deomcrats. The Hosue and the Senate. It would be a sad day if that happen.

    The GOP is going for all white voters,who else would go along with the tripe that,democrats are going to kill elderly people,who other than white racist would look for any reason to split the races.black people are still waiting for their racist gods to save them,so they could’nt be sold this garbage.the GOP knows about the hidden racism in whites and how to bring it out.so their only option is to do what they do best,race baiting like I said before white people are always on the lookout for an excuse to get wild in the streets and look for blacks to hurt and persecute.it should’nt be called the republican party,it should be called the racist party,we should be calling sewer rats what they truly are.they know that all the other whites always follow the pied piper,which is the white peoples party.
