Actually I'm shocked that so many hard pressed blue collar workers would vote for the woman whose husband sent the last of the good American industrial jobs to Mexico and China. Bill Clinton may not have instigated NAFTA and GATT, but he signed the legislation letting American industry leave our shores. Blue collar workers are either woefully ignorant or actually believe that this rich woman really does care--which she doesn't. She'll just say anything to get votes.

1. HRC didn't start life rich, or with any material advantages.
2. BHO did - he was mostly raised by his rich white grandparents (his grandmother was a VP of the Bank of Hawaii).
3. BILL Clinton was pro-NAFTA. As soon as the Clintons left the White House, Hillary started criticising it on the grounds of a "non-level playing field". I'd say that this means that Hillary felt obliged to not rock the boat while her husband was the President, but afterwards felt free to speak her mind.
4. Given Obama's "bitter" comments, and his flip-flopping on the 2nd amendment and gun control, its clear that he has even less in common with them than she does.
EDIT: Bleh, misplaced. This should be under "fempatriot"'s post.

You're right!
When will blue-collar Americans start voting their interests, and require that corporations be taxed what they owe this country? And be required to not pollute the air and water? And provide a decent minimum wage?
And then the real workers of America, filled with a renewed sense of awareness, could begin to take some power back from 'bushes base'.
That would be shocking, but hey I am for it, and for whoever leads the charge; Clinton or Obama.
